Our big boy!

Hi folks!

Zachary went to see his pediatrician yesterday. He now weighs 7 pounds, 6 ounces and measures 18 and a half inches. Dr. Gray was very impressed with the weight he has gained in two weeks. He's also losing that beautiful strawberry blond hair he has. We'll see what is going to grow in next!

Tomorrow Zachary goes back to the eye doctor to check on his ROP. Two weeks ago the doctor told us he thought Zachary's ROP was resolving and this may be one of our last appointments. Whoo hoo!

Some tidbits about Zachary...he loves being held, it doesn't matter who is holding him. He likes looking at faces and loves his daily tummy time. He also is really good at turning towards the tv when he gets his diaper changed. He is a night owl and likes to stay up late. He continues to be the reigning Prince Poops A Lot!

Last weekend Uncle Paul and Auntie Devin came out to meet him. We had a great time and they spent lots and lots of time holding and even some time feeding Zachary. We'll post the pictures soon.

It's been a tough week for a couple of our NICU friends. Brinson has had a rough week and is back on the CPAP and trying to stay warm (the NICU has been surprisingly cold over the past few days). Also, Monday was a very sad day as after months of fighting, sweet little James passed away. Please remember these families in your prayers. We really bonded with these and other families and their struggles are our struggles and their joys are our joys. We believe we are all life-long friends because of our NICU experiences. In other news, babies Noah and Aubrey are doing well and we are so glad to hear it!

As always, thanks for the comments, love and prayers! Love to all.
