One healthy eater!!!

As you can tell by the subject of this post, Colby is turning out to be one healthy eater! We began our New Mom's Network today and I weighed him before the session began. At 4 weeks old today, he weighs 10 lbs. 2 oz.!!! I couldn't believe the scale! The last time I had him weighed was at his 10 day check-up at he weighed 8 lbs. 4 oz. at that time. He is also growing in length... he is now 23" long! He's catching up to his cousin, Landon, who is 24" long and 9 weeks older than him! I think he's going to be a tall boy! Colby is changing so much, it seems like almost daily! He's truly growing into a little boy, especially when he is dressed in 'real clothes' (according to his dad)! We are doing well and I'm loving being at home, although it seems like I have very unproductive days. By the time we get up and moving in the morning, sometimes it's noon already!!! I've realized that the housework can wait and I try to soak up every minute with him I can. Gerry's loving his time with Colby in the evenings, so that's when I'm most productive. I'm loving the great weather lately, as Kristy and I slap on our Snuglis and head outside for our long walks on the path again. While neither of us gave birth on the paths of Stony Plain (as my brother-in-law Kyle predicted), it's great to be back walking them again!

We had professional family and newborn pictures done two weeks ago and I've posted a couple pictures on the side bar. I am in love with them! She did such a great job!!! I'm really going to try and post more often... it's often difficult to find the time though... please bear with me!!!

Take care!
