Emma Kate’s friend Brittain was kind enough to let her use her scales to see how much she weighs late Monday afternoon. The scale measures the same as her doctor’s scale, so we feel good about the accuracy. We talked to Valerie (Brittain’s mom) for a while, stripped EK down to her diaper (which Alison changed to remove the added weight of a wet diaper), and plopped her on the scales. I couldn’t believe it. She is up to 7lbs! Eating every 2-3 hours is paying off. She has gained over a pound since her last doctor’s appointment two weeks ago!

 Thanks Brittain for letting us use your scales! We hope you’ll let us come back in a week or two.
