Comparing the two kids...





Today we had Leila's two week appointment (even though we are closer to three.) She weighed in at 8 pounds 6 ounces, her head has grown an inch, and they didn't check her length. She had to have her second PKU test, which was a breeze compared to Orrin's (the IN-TRAINING nurse practitioner had to finally slice his foot with a razor blade UMM... OUCH.) The doctor indeed agreed with me about Leila having reflux, but with how well she is gaining weight he doesn't want to put her on medicine until that changes. So I guess we will be dealing with LOTS of spit up until she grows out of it! I was looking back at all of Orrin's pictures and realized they do look pretty similar, with just a few differences. Leila (thank GOODNESS,) did not get those pointy ears, she has bigger cheeks, Orrin had a lot less hair, and Leila has a lot deeper complexion. All in all though you can definitely tell they are siblings. Oh our sweet blessing.

Henry was a HUGE spitter-upper. The doctors told us that while it may have been close to reflux, it was really just "a laundry problem." And we did A LOT of laundry! Hang in there, and enjoy those sweet babies!
