Must Do This Quickly

Because my kids are downstairs alone as I blog this. Good parenting on my part.


Easter Sunday pictures (also Fitz's two week mark)






Easter Egg Hunt, Family Home Evening, Monday After Easter


This is one of my favorite pictures of all time.


We actually got Charlie to pick up some of the eggs. That was awesome.


The kids had a good time playing at the park together while Dad hid the eggs.


Fitz had his two week check up today (at 3.5 weeks old). Guess how much this kid weighs?

10 pounds, 13 ounces! Can you believe it? He was 7 lbs. 15 oz. at his April 1 appointment, so he's gained almost 3 pounds in 3 weeks. Crazy. He's not super chubby, though, so the doctor thinks he is probably tall as well, although they don't measure length at their two week appointment. Is that weird? Anyway, doctor says he is strong and perfect. Of course, I already knew that. :)

I talked to the doctor about Charlie a little bit. He has his two year well visit in a couple of weeks and I wanted to share our concerns with the doctor as a heads up before that appointment. He said he would make sure to have this ASQ or something like that (Jen, is that right?) for us to fill out and send back in for their specialist to go over. So we should know soon about what is going on with Charlie and what we can do for him.

Okay, I have to get back to being a mom now. Will try to post again soon.

10 pounds! So not fair! Ben weighed 10 pounds at his two week check-up. Those were the days -back when apparently my breast milk had cream in it.

Sally was 8-13 at her one month check-up. She was 22 inches long. I am sure she is bigger now as she is starting to outgrow her clothes. It is always sad when you start putting that first set of clothes away. By the way, you should enter that picture of Alek and Charlie in contest. It looks straight out of a magazine.

Love your guts - Amy

The kids looked so great on Easter. I loved the park pictures. I don't remember what Evan weighed at his 2 week check-up, but he weighed 15 pounds at his 2 month check up. Such big boys in this family! Let us know about Charlie!
