Alex Update...

I took Alex to the doctor on Thursday and here's the updates:

1. He weighed in at 10 lbs 4 oz....so he's gained 2 lbs since birth. :)

2. He measured in at a whopping 24" long! (Keep in mind he was born at 21.5") He's above the doc's 100% mark for height.

3. He got a treatment for thrush...a one time treatment inside his mouth. It looked like he chewed on an ink pen. It was purple dye stuff....and it got 6 spots on top of his head that look funny. They still haven't gone away....that stuff is STRONG!

4. He still had his umbilical cord stump when I went in that morning. One month and one day old...and that thing STILL hadn't fallen off! Bob changed him that evening...and it FINALLY did! Gotta be close to a record! Geesh!

He's excellent. Growing so fast and getting so big! I'm so proud of him :)
