Robby and Tommy...how cute, not posed...too bad it's blurry. Tommy 3 months old...Robby 9 yrs old
Kaitlyn and Tommy 12 1/2wks old.
Kimberlyn and Tommy 12 1/2wks old.
Tommy with a 12" ruler just to give you more perspective on his size. He's 19" stretched out (at least that's what he measured last week)....taken today....13 wks old!!

Robby and Kaitlyn's first time to babysit Tommy....ALONE!!! Larry and Kimberlyn ran to the store and Emma (dog) had gotten out of the gate! A friend had just stopped by, and had seen her on the way over...THANKFULLY! SO, I knew just where she was and drove to get her! The kids did fabulous!

Grandma E's visit, Tommy 12 1/2 wks old.
Real quick...we had a fabulous visit with Grandma E. (my mom), it was nice to have her here. The girls took her bowling while Robby went to Chuck E Cheese with a friend one day. We had to do something cool, it was Spring Break! She went back to FL on Saturday and then Kaitlyn and I went to a nice lunch in OKC, just the two of us. We then went shopping before heading back to Altus. We were tired!

Tommy is doing great, he survived a day away from me, and I survived too. Larry has a greater understanding of home difficult it is to get stuff done at home while caring for Tommy :)

This morning Tommy had his weight check at 13 weeks old (just 1 1/2 wks old adjusted)...6lbs 3ozs, again a bit on the low end for gaining. This was 3 ozs in a week and they want an ounce a day! This week was with out HMF. We'll give him another week to gain better before adding HMF. It seems that he spit up a lot while on the HMF supplement.

Today we are stopping his caffiene, and if he does well over the next week or two we'll completely disconnect his monitor at home. He's only using it at night, but we must continue using it to be sure he doesn't need the caffiene.

He will go back to the doctor for another weight check on Monday and will also have his ears screened again??? I guess he's high risk and it's recommended to rescreen at 3 months of age. Tommy turned 3 months old yesterday.

Now I'm off to the dentist as I missed my appt in January....take care!
