Emory's first doctor's appointment and outing

We took Emory to his very first doctor's appointment on Friday. We were excited to share our new son with Doc as she did not meet him in the hospital when we delivered.

Mommy and the nurse place Emory on the scale.


Emory's weight was 8 pounds, 3.5 ounces. A weight loss from birth is typical; this week Emory lost 1 ounce.

Emory's head and length were measured. His length was 21", he grew 3/4 of a inch in 6 days!

Doc examined Emory from head to toes; she said he was "perfect".

He received a Hepatitus B vaccination. Poor baby.

Since all appeared great, Doc requested his next appointment at 2 months old. This appointment in June will also serve as Everett's 2 year exam. *sniff* I can't believe our baby boy is going to be 2 years old next month.

After returning from our doctor's appointment, we loaded up the car (a first time, as a family of 4) and headed to Grampy's (with Ori) for lunch.

Thank you Ori for watching Everett so that we could both be at the doctor's appointment with Emory. He had a blast collecting rocks and playing chase through the laundry room.
