First Doctor Appointment

Banks had his first pediatrician appointment on Monday, December 22. Patrick and my mom were both working, so my sweet Daddy took us on our first outing. First, we stopped by the hospital to have his carseat checked, and made the appropriate adjustments to keep him safe. He actually really seems to enjoy riding in his carseat! Then, we went to see Dr.Maddox. Banks had gained 4oz back, weighing in at 5lbs, 10oz. Dr.Maddox was really impressed by this since most babies lose weight in the first few days. Our boy can EAT! The only thing Dr.Maddox saw was a very small birthmark on his right temple that will need to be removed at some point because it has potential to become malignant. Everything else looked really good. He has an appointment with the urologist on Monday, December 30 to see about this kidney. We're praying so hard!
