We took little Thomas to the doctor today. Bad news first - little man has an eye infection and rash because he's gotten so pudgy and we need to be more careful and cleaning inbetween all his rolls every day. When we left the hospital they said to bathe him every other day, but apparently they didn't know how fast he would grow! Good news - Thomas is 24in long and weighs 12.3pounds! He's off the charts for a baby his age, so we're looking at a potential pro athlete here.
Anyways the eye thing is totally normal - it's really just a clogged tear duct, so we have to put antibiotic cream or something on it 2 to 3 times a day. I'm nervous about putting ointment on his eyeballs, but I'll get over it. yuck.
Last week was my first week back to work after having 6 weeks off to spend precious time with the Little Man. Needless to say I head straight home to pick him up as soon as I can every day.
This past weekend we were in Burton, Texas, at Patrick's parents hosting a wedding shower for some of Pat's high school friends. We got to take this family picture with BOTH our children; Bella was our actual first child. She was born January 13, 2008, sharing a birthday with my Papa. I predict a joint bday party for Bella and Thomas in 2010 :)
