First Doctor Appointment

Okay, but first check out this photo. Anthony found his thumb for the first time. We know it was on accident, but he sure enjoyed sucking on it. Of course, he did keep stabbing himself in the eye at the same time. (We used the soft-focus setting on Picasa to get the cool effect.)

On to his first doctor appointment. We really liked his doctor. I'm not sure he did, as the first things that happens is being naked, and he hates being naked. Anthony has regained his birthweight and weighed in at 8 pounds, 1 oz. Doctor was pleased. His little umbilical cord is drying out nicely; we're looking forward to him having a belly button. The rest of him all check out healthy, too.

He's got a little bit of jaundice still, but at normal levels. We're trying to give him little sun baths every morning in the living room. She said that since he's eating well he's in good shape.

We're keeping him on the soy formula since his older siblings needed it.

All is well.

Oh my goodness! He is the most precious baby EVER! I'm glad you're able to get some sleep and even happier that Anthony is so joyful and healthy. We can't wait to hold, play, feed and (yes) change his little diapers.

Love to you all!!!
