6 week check up

So, there is a reason why our little man is wearing size 6-9 month clothing at 6 weeks old.... that is because he is the size of a small house!  Just came back from the Dr.'s and he is 14 lbs and 25 1/2 inches long!  So, in 4 weeks, our little weed grew 2+ inches and gained 2 1/2 lbs!  He is literally off the charts in both weight and height for his age, however, because he is so long, he actually didn't gain enough weight to keep up with the growth in his length!  I think Dex and I should consider buying stock in the grocery store and retail industry because with the way this kid is growing, we will be keeping them in business ourselves! 

As for the rest of his appointment, everything went great.  The Dr. just thinks he the cutest and complemented on how calm his temperament is.   She placed him on his tummy and he almost rolled himself over!!  She couldn't believe how strong he was as such a young age.  He did get a shot for Hep B and he whimpered a little for about 2 -3 seconds and then he was absolutely fine.  Such a big boy!  Mommy and Daddy couldn't be prouder, little love bug.... love you to pieces :)
