Erik has grown so much it is hard to believe he was ever so small. His tiny feet were so precious. I finally found a pair of sandals the other day that actually fit him. They look so cute on him. Erik has been busy gaining weight and growing. When I said he was 6 lbs. 7 oz. it was a weight from the week before, that actual day he was 6 lbs. 11 oz. and today he was weighed (and he received 4 shots) and weighs 7 lbs. 4 oz! He is also 19 1/2 inches long. He is now the size of a full term baby. Erik will be 7 mos. old on Monday, it's hard to believe. Tomorrow I am babysitting him and I plan on taking him out a bit to show him off. I will wear him in the Snuggli so no one thinks they can kiss or hold him. He doesn't need their germs. It should be fun!I started this blog when my nephew, Erik, was born prematurely in 2008. This blog is mostly about him. This year, Erik's little brother, Hunter, joined our family, but he only got to stay for a short while. So, I have added my rememberances of him.
