two weeks

this photo totally captures our little guy! we think that he is the most handsome baby boy in the whole entire world.

he had his two week check up today (gasp - already?!). he weighed in at 10 pounds 13 ounces, and he was 22 5/8 inches long. he gained a little over an inch in the last week! we kinda thought we could literally see him growing on sunday - we were right! we are so thankful for a healthy, alert, calm, and beautiful little man. i am thankful for a baby who loves his mama best - i think i got my wish for a mama's boy.

we are enjoying jeremy's week off. we have a special family day planned for tomorrow and have just been enjoying the extra family time. we both have plans to take our girl out for some one-on-one time within the next few days. i think that time will be good for all of us. it's been really nice to have jeremy around - he helps so much with the kids and around the house, and we have been enjoying seeing each other more during the day.

tonight we were talking about how quickly this time goes and what a treasure these days are. we know that in ten years, we would give a million dollars (if we had it) to go back to these days when our kids are so small and precious. we're soaking them up...every minute.
