The proof is in the pudding

(or in the milk, as the case may be). Evelyn proved today that we must be doing something right in feeding our kids. She had her two month check-up today, and I was rather astounded when I put her on the scales to find that she weighed in at 11 lbs. That's right: eleven. For someone who was just over 5 lbs two months ago, that's pretty significant. (Andrew also doubled his birthweight in about two months--at his two month check-up he was already 14 lbs). This means that she's gained approximately a pound a week since her one month check-up. No wonder her cheeks look so fat! Her other vital stats were 22.3 inches long and 40 cm head circumference. Her changes in height and weight mean that she's gone from being in the 6th and 8th percentile respectively to the 40th and 50th percentile. Not bad for a preemie.
