Baby Dolton is now seven whole weeks old! As of last Thursday, he weighed 9 1/2 pounds, and was 20 3/4 inches long. All in all, he's gained 6 pounds, 3.5 ounces, and grown 3 1/2 inches since he was born. Way to go baby boy!!!

My little guy is finally in size 1 diapers - no more newborn diapers for him! He can also wear all of his newborn sized clothing, and some things that are size 0-3 months. All of the preemie sized clothes are too small. He's getting so big! Well, I say that, but we saw a seven week old baby at Walmart today who was about twice his size - and last week there was a seven day old baby that was just a tiny bit smaller than him. He's still at the bottom of the growth chart, but he's gaining weight fast, and his nurse thinks he's doing great. She's always impressed with how much weight he gains each week!
.
Mom and Dad are in Mexico for Sara Lovelace's wedding this week... When they get back, I'm going to take Baby Dolton over there to see if he likes to swim. I just don't feel comfortable doing it by myself... Not that I think I would drop him or anything, but I do want another adult present! Ha ha.
.
Nancy (Baby Dolton's nurse) comes to see him again on Wednesday - I'll be sure to let everyone know how much he's grown since last week. Hope everyone's Memorial Day was great!!!
