Easter 2011

Martin's visit with the Easter Bunny

 Martin had a GREAT Easter!  He got everything he wanted!  Oops, I mean everything I wanted.  I know he won't remember this Easter, but I certainly will.  We went to church, and he was an angel!!  I had to get up one time and stand in the back with him, but he wasn't fussy and never cried.  And, he stayed awake the whole time.  His basket was overflowing with goodies.  He had a basket from my parents, one from Bryan's parents, and one from his Uncle Justin and Aunt Carley.  Baby boy racked up!!! 

The Easter Bunny came!

 He loved going through his basket.  He pulled things out, and they all went straight to his mouth....baby boy loves to chew or suck on anything!  He tried very hard to eat the Peeps.  Everyone wanted me to give him one....I just kept saying he will get it....eventually. 

Can I eat these before breakfast mom??

He LOVED pulling the stuff out of his basket and looking at it

 He got lots of new things to play with.  He needed a few new DVD's.  Baby Noah is starting to get on my nerves, so we had two new DVD's.  And, lots of stuff for the beach.  A baby float, hooded towel, and squirter toys.  I know he will enjoy it all so much.

Martin's First Easter

 Family picture after church.  This time last year Martin was in my belly....and you could barely even tell I was pregnant.  And, we had just found out that Martin was a boy.  My what a difference one year can make.  He is absolutely the best thing to ever happen to me and Bryan.

What all is in here Mom?

Doubles as a baby carrier when you are done

 And, when you get all of your new stuff out the basket, you can even play in the basket.  He enjoyed this just as much as any of it...so maybe I should have just put out an empty basket.  Haha!

Hunting/Eating Eggs with Daddy

Look I found another one

Easter Wagon Ride

He had a great time hunting eggs with Daddy, and then we all went for a walk and Martin got to ride in the wagon.  What a great Easter!  Hope everyone else had a great day too.

Beautiful Blooms

Figured I have a few minutes before the little bebe wakes up from his nap....so I should blog.  This weekend is Martin's first Easter, and boy oh boy is his little Easter Basket full!!  I might definitely have a problem.  It is called....I am already spoiling my child rotten.  Bryan wants me to be a stay at home mom, but maybe I should get a job to support my shopping habit.  It does help that I never go shopping for me anymore.  I am still about 5 pounds away from my weight before I got pregnant, and I refuse to buy bigger clothes.  I can get back in my pre-pregnancy jeans (no small feat there)....but lots of things are a bit tighter than they used to be.  I wouldn't change a thing though....I am proud of the extra 5 pounds (at least for now) and I don't mind that most days I don't bother straightening my hair or putting on any makeup.  Truth is...Martin loves me no matter how crazy my hair looks.  And, that boy loves his dad.  I am not near as funny as Bryan apparently.  Bryan can do anything and nothing at the same time to make that child die out laughing.  I should get a video of it.  When a smile starts creeping over his face, it quickly turns into that full mouth grin you see in all of my photos.  Sometimes when Bryan and Martin are playing I have to tell Bryan to give Martin a chance to catch his breath.  Who knew Bryan was so entertaining??  What a great daddy!!

We are still making our own baby food, and it really is so easy it is a shame that more people don't make their own.  I can't find anything the child won't eat.  He likes carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, and prunes too.  He likes it all, however I did figure out that he likes it all warm.  If it cools off too much, he gags until you warm it back up.  Silly thing....at least he lets us know his opinion, right?

Beautiful Peace Rose blooming

We have been working in the yard around here this week.  My knockout roses have started blooming and are gorgeous--and so have my peace roses.  I love rose bushes!!  I also planted some day lilies yesterday, a hydrangea bush, and a porch peach tree.  It already has tiny peach buds.  Maybe they will be yummy this summer (here is hoping).  Now back to the hydrangea.  Hydrangea is probably my FAV flower/bush ever.  I had them in my wedding, I just LOVE them.  Did you know that hydrangeas are pink unless your soil is acidic?  How do you know what kind of soil you have?  Short of taking it to a soil testing place.....I say you ask someone at your favorite nursery, and they will say, well, why does that matter? You can simply buy something to treat your soil with for acid loving plants--thus is born the blue hydrangea.  So, I am looking forward to some blue blooms this summer.  And, I have learned yet something else to add to my garden repertoire.  My garden knowledge is pretty limited....but over the years, my parents have taught me lots.  Dad and Mom are an endless reference for any and everything yard related.  You would think I would have gotten some of their skill.....but I can kill a hearty house plant in no time flat.  I do better outside....the sun helps, and I love to water the plants outside, so I do it more often!  We also lined our front flower beds with Arkansas Fieldstone yesterday.  We still have some more flowers to plant, and need to mulch before I will post any pictures.  I want you to see the finished product.  But, I will post a picture of the sweet little one.  Which who am I kidding, is why you really read my blog.  Who cares what my garden looks like?  Let's see the baby!!!

Yes, we watch TV at our house....add it to my Mother of the Year application!

Are you ready for this BROTHER??  Martin is!

Forgive the poor quality of the last two pictures.  The iPhone doesn't take great pictures like my camera....especially when there is sun coming in the back window!

Martin (part boy, part frog)

This video is from this weekend when Martin fell in love with his Johnny Jump-up.  Kid LOVES to jump!!  For hours after we took him out, anytime anyone held him he was trying to jump jump jump.  Pretty stinking cute, huh??  He is quite the frog.

And, this second video shows more of my little froggy baby!  The way he pulls his legs under him looks just like a frog.  Martin's Mamie (my Mama) has said since we brought him home from the hospital that he looked like a little frog sometimes....I guess she was right (she usually is).


Martin likes to do two things at the same time.  Maybe he will be a great multi-tasker when he grows up....who knows?  I digress......  Yesterday morning Martin cut his second tooth and then yesterday late afternoon, Martin decided to become Mobile.  Yes, you read that right.  Homeboy has decided sitting up isn't enough.  He doesn't get up on his hands and knees and crawl....but he can move.  I know this is the beginnings of crawling, and it makes me want to press pause again.  I was talking with a friend this morning and she said it seems like we were just having your baby shower....and it absolutely does!!  I cannot believe I have a baby who can sit up, eat his veggies, and now move on his own.  Where did the time go??

Martin and I started Couch 2 5k yesterday, and I want to puke just thinking about doing it again tomorrow.  It should not have been that hard.  I have a jogging stroller....but gees.  Am I really this out of shape??  I had no idea that running would be as hard as it was.  It is amazing what a year off will do to you.  I need to get my butt in gear.  We have two trips to the beach for the summer planned, and I will not look like a beached whale!  A pregnant girl is cute in a bathing suit, a Mama who hasn't lost all her baby weight yet isn't!! 

Well, sounds like little darling is up from his nap!  Hope everyone has a great afternoon.

Tooth Fairy?

Well, Martin has tooth #2.  Yay Martin!  Wait....I lost my mind for a second.  I wish we were dealing with the tooth fairy, instead we are dealing with the tooth _____.  Fill in the blank, none of the words that come to mind are appropriate for a blog post.  Two nights in a row we had a TERRIBLE time.  Up and down all night, wanting to eat in the middle of the night.  Nightmare for me!  This morning I told Bryan as I stumbled to the bathroom that I thought I was going to be sick just thinking of what the day today had in store for me.  Luckily it is all better.  We were working on tooth #2 and it sprouted!  I was so spoiled for the first tooth, that I was a little worried it might be an ear infection or something since Martin was SO IRRITABLE!!  He was an angel yesterday until my family left, and then holy terror Martin showed up.  So so so glad it was only a tooth and not an ear infection or worse!  What shall we name this monster responsible for sprouting teeth?  All I can say is thank goodness that tooth is over.  I know we have lots more to come.  But, I don't think I could have done that for another day.  I was close to my breaking point.  And, of course it is Bryan's week to work.....never does Martin do things at a convenient time.  Welcome to Motherhood, right?

Hey Mama!  I am ready for my green beans.

What did you just put in my mouth??

Nevermind, these are yummy....more please?!

Other than that slight speed bump, Martin is fabulous.  We started solids, and he LOVES it!  The first night was quite funny....he wasn't too sure about it, and at one point actually shuddered while eating his green beans, but now he is all about it.  You get anywhere close to that high chair, and you better be feeding him.  He gets all excited and starts kicking his arms and legs.  He has had green beans and carrots so far.  I am making sweet potatoes tomorrow for him to try.  It is so fun to watch him explore the world around him.  My family came for 4 days to visit, and I hated to see them go, but they enjoyed being with Martin so much.  And, he enjoyed being with them just as much.  Papa John showed him everything outside to play with.  They played with Bailey, picked up rocks, planted flowers, and had a ball!!  Mamie sang songs to him all week and read books to him.  She was so impressed with his book skills.  We read a lot.  So, he knows how to turn pages (although sometimes he skips a few or goes backwards).  But, she kept commenting on his fine motor skills.  Makes me proud.  I am sure lots of people think we sit around all day and watch TV.  We do watch some TV....but we learn a lot too.  Martin loves to look at the pictures of a book.  And, loves to EAT books too.  He is just manipulating his environment.  We went to a garden place yesterday and an antique shop before they had to get on the road.  It was so hard to see them go after we had so much fun while they were here.  Watching my brothers with Martin is a special treat too.  They are so proud of him.  They change diapers without blinking an eye.  And, will rock Martin, read to him, and talk to him about everything going on.  Zach was telling Martin all about fishing at one point when I passed by them.  When Zach was about 5 he told everyone he wanted to be Bill Dance when he grew up....and I think he could give Bill a run for his money.  And, Johnny was talking to him about playing outside and getting your hands dirty.  Lord knows Johnny knows how to do that.  The boys went golfing on Saturday (Bryan, Dad, Zach, Johnny) and all had a blast.  When they got home, we went in the back yard and hit golf balls out into the huge field behind our house.  It was fun, but I learned my golf game needs some work.  Haha!  And, Martin has fallen in love with his Johnny Jump-up.  I need to load those videos so I can add them to my blog.  He loves it, and gets so tickled at himself.

Papa John and Martin reading "Are You My Mother?"

My Uncles are cooler than Your Uncles!

Martin trying to convince Mamie he can have an ear of fresh corn

Cutest Baby Ever!!!!!

Well, the Farmer's Market opens this weekend, and we plan to hit them up early to get lots of fresh fruit and veggies to make another round of baby food.  This kid loves to eat, and I love to cook yummy fresh food for him.  Hope everyone has a great rest of the week.

Fabulous Favorites

Since a few people have asked for my recommendations on baby gear, I decided to just do a post about it.  I am not an expert by any means, but I have tried lots of different brands and items trying to find the "perfect" items.  So here are my preferences.  I cannot tell you what your baby will love, but I can tell you what Martin loves!! PS- I am going to link to Target and Babies R Us for the items, because that is where most of my stuff came from. 

Fun/Playtime
1.  An activity gym- These are great early on because they can lay on the floor and bat at the toys hanging.  Most come with a mirror, and babies LOVE mirrors and faces.  We love anything ocean or fish related, so we have the Baby Neptune Ocean Adventure Gym.

2. Exersaucer- They come in all shapes and sizes and colors.  They all do different things.  Some have built in bouncers, some are stationary.  All are fun!  Typically used with babies who have a little head control (maybe 3 or 4 months).

3. Bumbo- This seat is a must have.  One of my top 10 baby items!  You can buy a play tray separate which is great for putting toys on to entertain baby.  Some people feed their babies in the bumbo, we haven't done that.  But, you certainly can.

Diapering-
1. Diapers- I like Pampers Swaddlers.  The Sensitive are great, but a little more pricey.  In general, pampers are a bit more expensive than other brands, but Martin peed out of anything else we used (Target, Huggies, the list goes on).  If you have a boy, be sure to point it down....otherwise they will pee out of the top of the diaper.  Sam's has the best prices on Pampers, so go get a membership today.

2. Wipes- I use Pampers Sensitive.  They have a thick wipe line and one with aloe.  All work just fine, so watch for sales and coupons (although you can't use coupons at Sam's).  And, the great thing about Pampers is their Gifts to Grow program.  All Pampers products come with a 15 digit code you can enter on their website--and then you redeem your points for items.  The best thing I have found are Sam's Gift Cards.  You can also Google Gifts to Grow coupon codes and get extra points from time to time.

3. Diaper Rash Ointment- Boudreaux'x Butt Paste.....sounds silly, but it works.

4. Wipe Warmer- Seems silly, but it makes such a difference in those early days.  Middle of the night diaper changes aren't quite as traumatic when you don't have to wipe with a cold wipe. 

Bathtime-
1. Tub- we have the whale of a tub.  But, there are some with slings in them that seem great too.

2. Washcloths/Hooded Towels- Target's brand of washcloths (Circo) are the softest out there.  Don't try to go cheap for hooded towels....the cheaper they are, the thinner they are....the less absorbent they are.

3. Soap/Lotion/etc- Johnson and Johnson is good unless your baby has sensitive skin (like Martin).  We use Cetaphil Lotion and Cleanser.  It is very mild and works great now that we figured out he has sensitive skin.  Burt's Bees makes a line of organics that is nice too.   

Bedtime-
1. SWADDLE ME- We couldn't live without this!!!  They make fleece and cotton ones, so you can get one more appropriate for the season you are in.  Swaddling makes such a difference for baby.  They will sleep longer and harder if they are swaddled.  It mimics how the womb was, and provides that comfort.  It also keeps their arms by their side instead of rubbing their eyes and waking them up!  We started using a sleep sack last week to attempt to stop swaddling just because he has grown out of it.  Martin is a regular Houdini, and could get out of a blanket so the Swaddle Me was the perfect answer for us.

2. Blanket/Stuffed Animal- Martin has a monkey blanket that he loves.  It is a blanket/stuffed animal all in one.  He loved it early on--and still does.

3. Pacifier- say what you want....I said I wouldn't use one either, but it makes such a difference!!!  We use Playtex--not the silicone ones though, he only likes the latex ones.  And, I tried the orthodontic Nuk, and he gagged everytime we gave it to him. 

Feeding-
1. Boppy Nursing Pillow!!!  This is a must have for nursing mothers.  But, a helpful tool for any moms.  It is good for tummy time when baby is about 2 months and is fighting tummy time.  Great to put around your waist to help give a bottle.  Great to help people who are uncomfortable holding new babies.  Provides lots of support.  They sell a newborn pillow for added head support that I wish I had with Martin.  You might want to check it out. 

2. Bottles- Playtex all the way.  We use Vent Air Advanced and Drop Ins both made by the playtex company.  Medela creates lots of air bubbles and causes gas, Dr. Browns have lots of little pieces (which I didn't mind cleaning) but it didn't help his gas AT ALL!!!  You could hear the air he was swallowing.  And, Avent leaked like crazy.  I tried all the tricks (drying every piece perfectly, making sure the seal was  sealed....hahaha none of it worked).  Playtex 100%!!!  When he was refusing a bottle and only wanted to nurse, we used the Drop Ins Latex nipple and he seemed to take those more easily, but now he likes the Vent Air Advanced just as much. 

3. Medela Breast Pump- Pump in style advanced is what I use (double electric).  Get an extra set of shields/membranes so you don't have to wash every single time.  This is the best on the market.  Very fast....easy to use.  Comes with some bottles for storage.  I use the Medela pump and store bags for freezing milk.  I have a freezer full right now.  You can pump directly into the bag, seal, and freeze. 

4. Gerber soft spoons and bowls with suction cup bottoms are great for when you start solids.

5. High Chair- We have a Carter's wooden one, but they make a small one that you can sit in a kitchen chair that would be great if you lived in a small house or apartment. 


Other MUST HAVES-

1. Baby Swing- LIFESAVER!!  Martin still loves his swing, and so do I.  They even now come with plugs instead of batteries.  Although mine doesn't drain batteries that fast.  I had the Fisher Price My Little Lamb, and it is so soft and cozy, but I don't think they make it anymore. 

2. Bouncey Seat-We have the Ocean Wonders one, and Martin loves to play with the fish.  Most have a vibrating seat and music.  This is great for baby to relax in when younger, and then great to entertain themselves in when they get a little older. 

3. Pack n Play- Great for early days.  We set ours up in the living room and changed diapers on the diaper changer, and let him nap during the day in the newborn napper.  It has a vibration feature which is great when they are newborns.  You take the newborn napper and changing pad out and have a great upper level play area.  Then when they outgrow that, it lets down, and is like a typical playpen that you would think of.  Great for trips!!  You don't have to have a baby crib or bassinet to take...just use the pack n play. 

4. Baby Bjorn- This carrier is great for Dad.  It is good for Mommy too....but is manly enough that Dad can wear it too. 


Other advice.....sleep when baby sleeps.  Even if it is just a nap.  You will get a good nights sleep before you know it, but before then, you will wonder how you will ever function again.  Be prepared to use lots and lots of diapers.  Footed sleepers are the best thing for newborns.  No, I take that back, gowns are the best thing for newborns--easy diaper changes, and you can't put anything around their waist until the lose their umbilical cord.  But, after about a week and half, footed sleepers are great for sleeping.  Especially since baby socks don't seem to stay on.  The best advice I can give is to Ask for help.  Someone has gone through exactly what you are struggling with.  Find another mommy to vent to.  It will help you so much!!  If there is something you are curious about, ask another mommy, or call your pediatrician.  If you plan to breastfeed do a little research before baby gets here.  Ask in the hospital to see a lactation consultant.  And, be prepared for how hard it is.  It is so worth it, but you have to stick with it.  Take lots and lots of pictures, because before you know it....you won't remember just how little they were.  You will fall in love so fast you cannot even imagine what life was like before them.  They are amazing miracles!

Any other questions or specifics?  Or did I forget something?  Feel free to post in the comments.

Like Peas and Carrots

Ok, so more like Beans and Carrots, but that tag line isn't near as catchy, is it?  Tom Hanks eat your heart out!  We are cooking our first round of baby food.  And, by we I mean Bryan drove me to the grocery store, so that counts as his contribution.  The green beans are in the steamer as we speak.  I am already amazed at how easy homemade baby food is.  Visit this website to check out additional info.  And, carrots are next on the to do list.  If I had two steamer pots I could do them at the same time.  You can also bake carrots, but I prefer to steam as it saves lots of your nutrients and minerals in the cooking process.  The website I use says that steaming allows the beta-carotene to be more bio-available.  But, to avoid sounding like an over zealous snob, I will just say saves nutrients and minerals :) When steaming veggies be sure to save the water you steam with, as it collects the minerals lost in cooking, but you can use this water to thin your puree (thus adding back the minerals).  Yay!!!  But, don't do that with the carrot water until 8 months (when nitrates are no longer a worry).  Lots to think about.  But, I swear, this is easy, and so cost efficient, not to mention you know exactly what is going in that sweet baby's tummy....GREEN BEANS!  You can even use frozen vegetables if fresh aren't in season.  This helps with cost efficiency, and makes some foods easier (green beans for instance, since frozen are easier to make smooth--plus someone has already snapped them, and removed the strings).  Just be sure to check your ingredients.  The only ingredient should be whatever you are cooking.  Keep your eyes peeled for added salt!!!

Green Beans

I steamed my green beans for about 15 minutes, until they were tender. Then, place the green beans in the blender and puree (you can also use a stick blender, or food processor).  I added about 1/2 cup of the water I steamed in back to the green beans while pureeing.  This helps with the consistency.  After pureeing, pour into an ice cube tray.  Cover ice cube tray with cling wrap, wait til it cools a little and then freeze.  Each ice cube= 1 ounce (30 mL).  Which, conveniently is about one small jar of baby food.  After frozen, pop ice cubes out of tray and place in a labeled freezer bag.  Then remove servings as needed!  How easy is that?  And it took all of 20 minutes start to finish!!  Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy.  About a pound of green beans filled an ice cube tray and I had about two extra servings, this was perfect since I plan on feeding green beans tonight and tomorrow.  When introducing new food, you should always space them out 4 days, to check for allergies. 

Carrots
I steamed the carrots just like my green beans, and pureed in the same fashion.  Remember to use water that you didn't cook in to thin because of the nitrates associated with carrots.  Pour carrots into ice cube tray, cover, and freeze.  Helpful hint: if you need to thin something, you can add water, formula or breast milk.....if you need to thicken it you can use rice cereal. 

I can now officially make a mean baby puree!!  I will post pictures later this week of Martin trying his new yummy purees.  He loves playing with a spoon, so I can't wait to see how solids go.  I love silly baby faces, and I feel certain we are going to get some tonight.  If you are interested in making your own baby purees, please view the website I linked to above, it gives you every direction in detail....fool proof.  So easy, a cave man could do it! 

And, for my readers who couldn't care less about making their own baby puree (Mom and Kay)....here is Martin's 6 Month Update!

We went to the doctor this morning for our 6 month check up.  His weight was 15 lbs 3 ounces and his height was 26.75".  He is still on the same percentile he has been, and doctor said everything looks great.  Great muscle tone, great job sitting up, great job bearing weight in his legs.  Yay Martin!  Such a big boy.  And, he got his 6 month shots.  Just two this time, and one oral.  And, he did GREAT!!  He barely whimpered.  I usually nurse him right after to help soothe...and he didn't even really want to nurse.  That in itself is a miracle.  He always wants to nurse.  He was happy, and didn't mind a quick trip to Target to pick up a few things.  Now he is in his swing talking to the animals on Baby Einstein.  Such a big--happy--boy.  We go back at 9 months, but no shots then, Thank Goodness!  On the agenda for the upcoming weeks:  1. Trying to transition out of swaddling 2. Dropping the pacifier at night 3. Tasting lots of yummy food. 

Mamie and Papa John and Uncle Zach are coming to visit Martin this weekend, and Martin can't wait!!!  They will be here several days, and I cannot wait to see them!  Hurry up Saturday.

Half Birthday

Happy 6 Months to my baby boy!!  I absolutely cannot believe Martin is 6 months old today.  He is getting to be such a big boy these days, I just want to press pause.  It is going by too fast!  The weather has been cold or yucky all week, so we have been trapped in the house, but that is kind of good because it gave Martin a chance to practice sitting up.  He can now sit up by himself.  Very rarely now he tips over, but it still happens every once in a while.  This usually only happens when he gets too excited and start flailing his arms and kicking his legs, Ha!  He is such a happy boy all.the.time.  I am worried that this means my other children are going to be not quite as happy.  Bryan and I joke all the time that we don't know how good we have it...YET!  He has even been happy this week all while getting his first tooth.  I thought he would be a bit fussier than he was, but heck, I will take it.  The tooth has barely broken the surface, so it is darn near impossible to get a picture of it, but trust me, it is there!  Picture to prove it or not.  I get tiny glimpses of how wild he will be though.  He has started a "hyper" time at night right before bed.  It is almost like he is trying desperately to stay awake.  I think it is cute now, but I bet when he is 2 it won't be near as precious!  He will do ANYTHING to stay awake.  I must be so entertaining. 


It is hard to believe that just 6 months ago we walked (or rather waddled) in the hospital just Bryan and I.  And, now baby makes three!!! He has blessed us beyond measure, and we are so thankful for our little blessing.  He has been happy and healthy since he made his debut 6 months ago.  Knock on some wood, the kid hasn't had so much as a cough or runny nose....nothing!  Mom says its because I am still breastfeeding, and he doesn't go to daycare!  So glad that I can do both of those things for my sweet baby....I figure it is the least I can do.  He loves anything that we are interested in.  Remote, computer, iPhone, and especially cups!  He watches me drink water out of a big cup and throws an almost fit until you let him hold it and get some, then he thinks the water is nasty and spits it all out.  We are working on cause and effect....haven't quite mastered it yet, since we do that at least once a day.  He thinks his daddy is the funniest person on the planet.  Sometimes Bryan can just look at Martin and he will start laughing. 

Stats about Martin: 

He has moved to size 2 diapers, and I imagine he will be out of those in just a few weeks.  And, he goes through about 6-8 diapers a day.  When I see a newborn diaper now I just laugh....they were too big on him at first. 

He still sleeps really well at night minus a few cries for a pacifier retrieval.  Who can blame him?  He still sleeps swaddled, so he can't get it for himself.  Speaking of still swaddling, I guess we are going to have to teach his college roommate how to do it.....cause he sleeps SO MUCH BETTER swaddled. 


Martin eats about every 3 hours, except during the night (Thank goodness for sleeping through the night--Mommy needs sleep too). 

He gets rice cereal once a day, and LOVES it.  I cannot wait to start solids next week.  Stay tuned for a post about making your own baby food (Next Week). 

He is in 6 month clothing in most things still.  But, a few brands he is in 9 months.  Why can't baby clothing companies get on the same page and all have standard sizing??

He rolls back to tummy, and tummy to back now with ease, and sometimes rolls over and over and over. Pretty cute!  He is so close to being mobile....hold on!!  He can scoot just a few inches, and can go backwards on the hardwood floor.  I can't wait for him to crawl and discover the world around him!

Next week I will have his height and weight stats after we go to the doctor.  My guess on weight is 16 lbs 2 ounces.  No idea why....that is just my guess.  I am NEVER right about it.  Maybe there is a first time for everything??  Everyone have a wonderful weekend!!
