Two week checkup!

Once again, passed with flying colors! He's already weighing in at 9 lbs., 6 oz., and 22 inches! The nurse and the doctor were both impressed with his weight gain and his strength and muscle control as well as his mellow personality--he didn't cry at all! (And he didn't pee on daddy this time--a distinct improvement from last time!) His color looks very good; he does have a few temporary red birth marks in his nose, around his eyes, and on the back of the head, but they are small and should go away before he's a year old. It turns out that the umbilical stump didn't fall all the way out and that's why it still looked gross inside. The doctor got most of it out, but there was a small gooey lump left behind so she put some silver nitrate mixture on it to dry it out and hopefully it will be gone in the next week. Other than that, he's looking good! If all goes well we don't have to see the doctor again until he's two months old! Yay!
