Blake's stats


At Blake's 2 year well check we finally weighed him after not doing it for three months. He now weighs 19 lbs. 4.5 oz. and he is 32 inches long. So he has gained 2 pounds in three months. For him that's not bad. He also now has eight teeth and we'll be seeing the dentist soon to make sure that there are more. He's still not on the chart for his weight but he's in the 3rd percentile for his height. For the last three months we ditched the pedia sure type drinks and the heavy whipping cream and did things like chocolate syrup in his milk and olive oil in his mashed potatoes. We were spending an extra $150 to $200 on the pedia sure and whipping cream a month. And that was using coupons. So for budget reasons we decided to give it a break. Plus it didn't really seem to be working that well. He still wasn't gaining weight when he was on that diet. He still gets a higher calorie diet just not an astounding 1400 calories a day. So now for the next three months we are going back on the 1400 calorie diet with the drinks and see what happens. Wish Blake luck and us luck that I don't have to declare bankruptcy! Oy! At least Blake's happy, I think.
