3 months and 8.5 lbs!

Our little man was 8.5 lbs at his appointment a week ago. I bet he's pushing 9 lbs at this point! We celebrated his first Valentines Day and have had a good day. The past couple of days he's been a bit grumpy, but I guess I would be too if I were having trouble "passing" things...poor guy! He has started cooing and laughing and talking up a storm! I just love it! He smiles like it's going out of style and it is just the cutest thing EVER! He has quite the personality! We're still not sure when the next surgery will be, but he has to be at least 11 lbs in order to schedule it. As scary as it is, I'm hoping it will get here, happen, go well and be done so we can have a year or two before his last surgery. Keep your fingers crossed!
