How Big Am I?

Rob had his f/u appointments last week with the eye doctor and his pediatrician. His ROP has completely corrected itself and we don't have to see the Opthamologist for 6 months! We are so very excited and feel so blessed for that wonderful miracle.

His pediatrician appt. went well; he had gained 6 ounces and was up to 5 pounds and gained a 1/2 inch and was 18 inches. The doctor was very impressed by these numbers and wants us to increase his food so that he is up to 2 ounces by the end of the week- no problem for Robinson, he LOVES to eat. We just increased slowly, b/c his reflux has been very manageable compared to most preemies, and we don't want him to have to go on medicine.

Here are some recent pictures that I thought you all would enjoy...


This is his "hoodie" outfit that Miss Rosemary bought for him
He is starting to love looking at brightly colored objects

This is a bear that his Grandma Peggy bought for him. I thought it would be neat to take a picture of him beside it each week so that you could get an idea of how big he is.
