One month checkup

Jack had his one month checkup on Monday. It went great! The biggest surprise was his weight--Jack went from 7 lbs, 9 oz at two weeks to 9 lbs, 14 oz at one month. That translates to a jump from 16th to 45th percentile! He was 22 inches long, so he grew over an inch in those two weeks too. No wonder he eats so often! Meredith had a pretty high fever again over the weekend, so we took her to the doctor on Monday too (thank God for my dad--I could never have taken both of them by myself!). Mere has a pretty nasty viral infection and has had a fever for the last five days. She's starting to feel a little better today, so I'm praying she's on the mend. She finally had a good lunch and is acting more like herself. This is our first day home with just the kids and me, so it's been an interesting one. We actually made it to Target and back in one piece and had fun! I'm just praying that naptime lasts a long time today so we can all get some rest.
