Andy has gained weight! He now weight 17 pounds and is 28 inches long. That puts him in the 0th percentiile for weight and the 5th percentile for height. He's getting bigger though. We can even switch to whole milk, so that's exciting. I'm gonna try to have him off bottles by the end of November.
Livvy is 27 pounds (54th percentile) and 34 1/2 inches tall (66th percentile). Just your average kid. She can start having peanuts now, so I'm sure she'll love peanut butter. They both got flu shots and Livvy got the H1N1 vaccine. That flu is going around like crazy here, so I'm glad she got it. I wish they had one for Andy too.

Yay for gaining! Did they seem worried at all? 'Wondering because Megan isn't too far away from him...
@filtered_sunlight@momaroo - After months of acting worried, my doctor finally seemed happy with him. He gained about a pound in the last month or so. He's also FINALLY started eating more solid foods and I told the doctor that. I can stop with the formula, and the only advise she had was to give him some Nestle Head Start (I think? - some powder stuff to add to milk?) every day. Hopefully you'll have the same good luck with Megan. :)
@christygraves - She's at 17 pounds now... I'm hoping she'll gain at least an additional pound in the coming weeks. I need to bump her appointment back because otherwise, in the present situation, I'm going to be driving an extra 250 miles just for the appt.. Maybe that'll help a bit, too.
