Fattening up quite nicely

 Its funny, everyone who sees Baby Richard comments on how tiny he is.  Meanwhile, I think he's huge.  Relatively speaking.  He has a tummy, a double chin and his newborn size clothes fit.

  Mini-dude went in today for his Synagis shot and a check-up.  He's up to 7 pounds, 11 ounces.  Doesn't sound like much for a 7 week old baby, but its four pounds heavier than when we first met him.  He's not on the growth charts yet, but when you adjust for prematurity, he's at 50-75%.  (i.e., as a brand new baby, 40 weeks gestation.)
