A size 4 diaper!

For the last week or so, I've noticed Casey has been feeling heavier and heavier every day. I decided to go and get him weighed today, and he was 24lbs 8oz. At his last check-up (4th November), he weighed 20lbs, 2oz.. so he has gained more than 4lbs in less than 5 weeks! Must be all that advent calendar chocolate, lol.

He's also graduated to a size 4 diaper at night, starting tonight.

The size 3 and the size 4 overlap (size 3 are up to 28lbs, and size 4 start at 22lbs), and although the size 3 still fit him perfectly and work great during the day, I've been having to change his diaper at midnight every night, otherwise it'll be soaked through by the morning. This could very well be a combination of him bringing a bottle to bed with him, and the fact that he sleeps at least 13 hours per night, but last time we had this problem, it meant it was time for the next size. So I figured we'd try to size 4, and if that doesn't work, we'll check out the overnights.

Every time we go up a size, I take one diaper of the previous size to keep with all of his old clothes. I dug them out today, and I couldn't believe how tiny his little newborn diaper was.
