Two Weeks Old




Luke at two weeks old!

We went to the doctor yesterday for his two week appointment.
He weighed 8 lbs. 12 oz. which makes him almost a pound over his birth weight!
He's in the 50th percentile for weight.
He's now 20 1/8 inches tall. He's grown a pretty good amount!
He's also in the 50th percentile for height.

They also measured his head circumference, but I don't remember what that was.
I just know that he's in the 30th percentile for head size. Good thing we know intelligence is not proportional to how big your head is!

He also had to get his heel pricked again. They send the blood samples to the state where they do testing for different things- what exactly, I'm not sure. I'm supposed to get the results back in a couple of weeks, so I'll know more then about that one.

He definitely did not like the heel prick at all, but he recovered very quickly. At the next appointment, he'll begin to get his immunizations. That appointment won't be very fun during or after. They gave me a list of all the possible side effects, and I have a feeling I'll need a drink at the end of that day! I don't think he'll feel very good after this next one.

Here he is napping today:
Don't mind the awkward outfit. He's wearing a 0-3 month onesie, but his pants are still newborn size. He's a little between sizes, so I ended up mixing a couple of different outfits. I need him to get a little longer to fit into 0-3 month outfits well. Right now, they're a little long on him. I have a feeling, though, that we'll be dealing with that issue for his entire life :)

Also, we got the final pictures back from our professional photo shoot session we did the week he was born.
Here's the link to see them!

We can print all the photos easily, so if you want one, we can easily get it printed.
Enjoy them!

  3. Adorable!! We've been doing seperate shots for Luke. I just feel it's too many at once for their little bodies. It's more appointments, but makes me feel better. Let me know if you have any questions about it or anything else!
