5 lbs. going on 11!

Van had a doctor's appointment this morning which are always entertaining. You never know how he's going to react to the nurse and doctor poking all over his body.  Today the doctor and nurse both exclaimed "Wow! he is so calm! What a relaxed baby!"...  Evans and I nodded our heads but we were secretly exchanging glances that relayed we were both shocked he was so well behaved. Here he is on the examination table staring at himself in the mirror:

You cannot really see his cute Santa hat. Evans wore it when he was a baby and his parents saved it! Lucky Van :) He received three immunization shots and one dose to prevent Rotovirus. The good news is he has made an appearance on his growth chart! He is now in the 25th percentile for his size.  When we brought Van home from the hospital, he was down to 5 pounds and barely showed up on his growth chart.  This morning he was 10.8 and 22 inches! We are so proud.  Our little one is now snoozing from his exciting morning:
