William's 2 week check up

Yesterday, we took William in for his two week check up. Thankfully he is healthy and growing fast!

Weight: 7 lbs 15 oz (30th percentile)
Length: 20.5 inches (50th percentile)

The doctor said that they hope babies are back up to their birth weight at their two week check up. Sweet little William has gained 10 ounces since birth...or more than a pound since we left the hospital. Yay! So he is now, at two weeks old, the same size as Caroline at birth. He seems so tiny to us but we are loving it!!

We talked to the doctor about his spitting up because its become more frequent...and often through his nose.  Unfortunately its only gotten worse since our appointment yesterday and our house will soon smell like spoiled milk. (You've been warned!)

In other news, his eyes have turned more of a charcoal gray in the last few days and they are beautiful! (I know we are biased but they really are gorgeous.) Also, we are pretty sure he looks just like my Dad and are looking for baby pictures of Dad to compare.

Here is a picture of our little man right before we left for his two week check up...so handsome!
