Doctor's Visit


Here's Tristan enjoying his bouncy chair. He had a doctor's appointment yesterday which went really well. He new weight is 10lbs. He's gaining about an ounce a day which is perfect. As a preemie the pediatrician says he needs to gain 1-2 ouncces a day. Tristan also got a few more immunizations, which he was not happy about! We'll be going back in a few weeks for another weight check, he should be over 11 pounds by then! I guess with weight they want him to be caught up to his actual age, so technically he's still small for just over 4 months of age. The other developmental things like crawling, listening, smiling, etc. will be based on his corrected age which is 5 weeks.

He certainly looks like a contented child! What do you suppose he is pondering? Looks pretty wise, to me!
