Our Girl's Growing!

Yesterday we had the pleasure of meeting Anna's pediatrician for the first time at her one-month appointment. I must say, we were both really impressed . . . and thankful he shares similar parenting philosophies as we do.

She is very healthy and growing, growing quickly. We were shocked, but happy, to discover she is nearly 10 pounds now! Anna is in the 50-75 percentile for her weight and in the 85 percentile for her length. She's grown 2.5 inches since birth. How blessed we are that she is so healthy--music to a mama's ear.

Bryan was a trooper at the doctor's office, standing by Anna's side while she got her shot. Um, the mama bear bailed to the waiting room. She did well, though. Anna only screamed for about three seconds until Bryan picked her up. Then, it was business as usual. She's a star. :-)

Tomorrow we will also start giving her more ounces in that bottle. We've been doing so at her nighttime feeding, but she's seeming more and more hungry as the day goes. Six ounces--here we come!
