The big weigh-in


Joshua had his two month appointment today. He is doing great and weighs 12 lbs 11 oz now (75 percentile) and 22 1/2 inches (50th percentile). Our doctor confirmed that the "babies poop doesn't stink at this stage" is just an old wives tale. Shooo-wee, I thought we had a special little stinker on our hands. He got three shots and seemed to take them pretty well. He hasn't been any fussier than normal, so we are thankful of that. After getting up for his first feeding this morning I fell back asleep and didn't wake up until an hour before we had to leave. Poor Joshua, I didn't have anything clean to put him in and he hasn't gotten a bath in several days (it was a busy weekend). I managed to sponge him down and put him in an outfit that is too big, but at least clean. Once we got home he spent the rest of the day in a Christmas outfit. I'm not afraid to tell it like it is...

Other exciting news on the block. Josh's friend across the street was born Thursday-a whopping 10 lbs 6 oz! We went to visit him Saturday, but of course Josh slept the whole time. He's a pudgy little cutie. We were out an about a lot this weekend and Joshua was very cooperative. He also had some one on one time with Daddy while I went to a card making party. We are blessed with a good baby. He is sleeping from 10:30 PM till about 6 AM these days. I just hope any future kids are just as good!

So Kurt is into stamping?? I'm not gonna let him pawn that off on you being the one who is supposedly writing all this, and being the one who is stamping. I know better. He's finally getting in touch with his feminine side. Yeah right!!
