Two weeks old :)

Chad went back to the doctor for another weight check today, and extended his streak of peeing on the nurse during the weigh in.  I think the nurses are as anxious as we are for him to get back to his birth weight so we can stop coming in for weight checks.  I'm secretly proud of him for at least waiting until after the weight has been recorded to shower them, because we need every last gram counted.  His aim was off today because he didn't manage to drench his paperwork as well.

The doctor said he was "perfect" and "very cute", but still too scrawny.  So there will be lots of force feedings over the next few days so we can knock her socks off at Monday's weigh in.

Nom nom nom.  This will be all Chad does for the next few days.

When we give him breaks from eating, he likes to fall asleep during his daily walks on the ATT, which is a shame because he's missing out on all the pretty leaf colors.  He also likes to eat his hands. His favorite songs are the Muppet Show theme song and Madonna songs (with Mommy) and the edited version of "Forget You" (with Daddy).  (In case you're not familiar with that song, the lyrics include such gems as "I guess he's an xbox and I'm more Atari.")  He does NOT enjoy bath time, and I'm pretty sure that the reason he doesn't weigh more by now is because he burns off too many calories with his hysterical screaming every time he gets a bath.  If anyone knows how to make baths less traumatic, we're all ears.

And just because he's so cute, here are some more pictures from the past week:

"Not that damn camera again!" 

He does stretches every morning and if you want him to be more pleasant about waking up you don't interfere with his routine.

And I saved the cutest for last:
