On The Growth Chart!!!

We have some great news! As you can tell from the title above, Mason has made it onto the growth chart in all 3 areas (weight, height and head circumference) for the very first time! We were all super excited at his office visit. Two nurses weighed and measured him because they couldn't believe he grew so much since his last visit. Mason is now 19 pounds, putting him at the 4th percentile for weight and the 10th percentile if you adjust for prematurity. He is also 29 inches long! He has grown almost a foot since birth!

The office visit went pretty well. Unfortunately Mason had to get some shots which upset him, after a few moments of crying he started "yelling" at the nurses in baby babble, still with tears coming down his cheeks. I felt bad that he was so upset, but he was sooo cute at the same time that I had to smile! The nurses thought it was pretty cute too!

Unfortunately Mason has caught a cold this past week. He has been a little stuffed up, but has been handling it well. He has only required a couple of extra breathing treatments and his oxygen sat's are still 97 -100%. He has now developed a bit of a cough due to the stuffiness breaking up. Hopefully in a few days he will feel much better.

Stayed tuned for some pictures of Mason trying to crawl and standing.

It's hard to see it in the picture, but there is water, water everywhere!
