So, Bailey went to the doctor today to have his ears checked and to catch up on his shots. He weighs in at a hefty 29 pounds 9 ounces and is 32 1/4 inches long. He is off the charts for both height and weight. A little chubby for his height, but nothing to worry about the doctor assures. Had a scary moment though when the doctor thought that he heard a murmur in Bailey's heart. Thank god it turned out to be nothing.

Now to track Bailey's progress in the getting to sleep on his own department. He slept for nine hours on the 12th with one two hour crying jag in between. Last night he slept for ten hours with an hour and a half crying jag and then later, a few ten minute crying jags. Is that progress? Anyway, he went to sleep easily tonight in about ten minutes. Just a little rub on the back from me. A good sign, I hope.
