Brotherly Love

Jacob and Dylan finally met. I am pretty sure the nurse broke the rules by allowing Jacob into the Special Care Unit but it worked out for us.

Jacob was not too happy seeing his daddy holding his little brother.He immediately screamed out "daddy!!" and made his way to his dad. So Mike handed Dylan to me, I did not get the same reaction from Jacob. Jacob has been on a daddy lovefest for the last couple of weeks. Even though he was not as jealous of me holding Dylan as his dad, he still gave Dylan a couple of dirty looks and would not look at him. Wonder how he's going to handle it when we bring Dylan home and he doesn't leave? :)

Dylan is finally back at his birth weight - 3 lbs 9 ounces. He lost 4 ounces a couple of days after he was born and was taking forever to put the weight back on. Today he weighed in at 3 lbs 10 ounces. The hospital weigh the babies every night but every Sunday night they get an official weight and height measurement. Last week at his one week check he was 3 lbs 7 ounces and 42 centimeters. So he was down 2 ounces but had grown a centimeter. Hopefully he's grown a little more.

Jacob has his 2 year check up on Tuesday. He really feels like he's packed on the pounds the last week or so. Now that he's off the bottle he eats everything in sight. It is getting really difficult to carry him around.
