Meg took Noah to the hospital to get a check up today as the doctors told us to come back in a week to get a check as his weight had been down. He was up 200g so that was great! Well up over 3500 so the nurses were happy with that. Also, Megumi had their second baby yesterday at the same hospital so Meg and Noah visited them. Had another girl, gotta check the spelling of the name before I make a mistake. Pics 1-5: 1. Noah looking good. 2. In the morning. 3. 2 new babies. 4. At the hospital. 5. Done in.
