He has gained 17 ounces in 16 days and he grew 3/4ths of an inch since he was born. The pediatrician said that on average babies gain between 1/2 ounce and 1 ounce everyday, so Hatcher is right on track!
Here are his new statistics:
weight: 8 pounds, 7 ounces
length: 20 and 3/4 inches long
He is still such a sweet baby unless he gets hungry. He does want to eat very often though...every two hours. And he takes a good 40 minutes to eat, so it seems like as soon as he finishes eating and I get him burped and changed, then he is hungry again! Fun life with a newborn! :) He is such a blessing and we get a kick out of his little smiles and his big beautiful eyes staring at the wall and the ceiling fan. Such a cutie!
