Wee 4 Peters: Audrey's 2 week check-up

Audrey had her 2 week check-up on Friday. She weighed 7lbs, 2oz, was 19 1/4 inches long and her head circumference was 35cm. Her head is in the 75th percentile (whopper head!) and I think both her height and weight are about in the 30th percentile. However, her height for weight (or weight for height, whatever it is) is around the 75th percentile. So, she's doing well! She's gained almost a pound since birth. Actually, since every baby loses weight after birth (Audrey was 5lbs, 15oz at her 3-day check-up; don't know what her discharge weight was before we left the hospital), she's gained more than that pound. Hopefully she'll continue to gain weight so well!

Audrey does have reflux, just like Jackson. She doesn't have as bad of a case as Jackson did but we did ask for Prevacid to help. She's spitting up through her nose and I can tell it's painful for her so hopefully we'll get that Prevacid in her and that will take care of it.

Jackson is doing well, still all over the place and into everything. Just yesterday he fell off his toybox and hit the side of his face. I think we're going to have to put a helmet on him just so that he can run around and play in our home. He's all boy, that's for sure. He's still in awe of Audrey, for the most part. He comes over and rubs her head and is fascinated by her fingers and hands. Of course, I say that -- however, he did try to kick her in the head this morning. Little rascal!

We had a Super Bowl party here last night. Mom & Dad, as well as my Uncle Norman, joined us. Josh & Katrina stopped by for a while to visit as well. We didn't do anything too special. Lots of laughing, conversation and rooting for the Giants to win (well, all of us except Dan!).

Here are some pictures for your enjoyment:
