Another Day at the Doctor

We are no strangers to doctors' visits. Now that we have another munchkin, we get to see the pediatrician even more often! Brogan had his two-week-old appointment, and he continues to be healthy. Blessings abound!
At seven days old, the following were Brogan's stats:

 Height: 20.5 inches (shrunk .25 from birth?)     Percentile: 75th
Weight: 8 lbs 4 oz (down 3 oz from birth)     Percentile: 50th-75th

At fourteen days old:
Height: 21.25 inches     Percentile: 75th
Weight: 8 lbs 9oz     Percentile: 50th-75th

The goal was for Brogan to exceed his birthweight, which he has done by 2 ounces. (We don't pay too much attention to the height numbers; the process of getting a baby's height is FAR from scientific!) We also wanted confirmation that his jaundice has improved, which it has. We don't need to see the pediatrician (for Brogan) for six more weeks.
