Little Man.

Erik is estimated to weigh at least 10 lbs. now! No small feat for a little guy who weighed just 19 oz. at birth. However, to be 10 lbs. at 9 mos. old is still small. He is outgrowing most of his preemie clothes and now wears Newborn size and occasionally, 0-3 month size. He is getting chubby. He is still struggling with asthma-like symptoms and he still spits up through his nose (a result of reflux). He is otherwise doing fairly well. His preemie issues are showing more and more as he gets older. He's our little man and is quite a fighter! It was his fighting spirit that he had the day he was born that let me know he was going to be okay and that he was going to make it. And so he has. Erik will be 10 mos. old on the 29th of this month. I am so proud of him!
