1 Month Doctor's Visit

Luke went to the pediatrician yesterday for his one month well-child visit. He's grown so much that we expected him to weigh a ton, but the scales surprised us: 11lbs, 5oz. He doesn't weigh quite as much as Jackson at this age, but he's still a "big 'un". I guess that after having Jackson, my sense of "average" size for babies is a bit skewed, but he's still huge compared to most kids his age. Of course, Luke's appointment was a few days early, so maybe by the 12th of the month Luke would weigh the same as Jackson did at one month? If nothing else, Luke's visit has shown me how impressive it was that Jackson reached 11lbs, 11oz at this age, considering that Luke had nearly a pound head-start on him!
