– joaquin had his two-week check-up today.   
– he weighed in at 7 lbs, 5 oz, which is about a pound up from when he left the hospital and well above his birth weight of 6 lb 13 oz
– this means the gazillion times i’ve fed him have paid off!  
– :huge relief:
– his weight puts him in the 17th percentile, but his height puts him in the 78th percentile!  
– he’s a string bean, basically
– therefore, he’s already taking after his daddy
– he’s got an umbilical hernia, but it should clear up on it’s own and no one’s worried about it.
– also, his pooping colors and patterns are totally normal 

overall, it was a successful visit and i’m so proud of me/him/aaron for all of our hard work!    

i’d also like to thank my boobs.    good job, BOOBS!  way to go!

BONUS SECTION!
if you’re really interested, you can see his fascinating feeding / pooping patterns here, courtesy of the "Total Baby" iphone app:

purple = feeding
stripes  = poopy & pee-pee
blue = pee-pee only

like whoa, right?

as you were.
