Growing up so fast!!!

This past weekend, Tim and I started to notice that our little man is getting bigger before our eyes. While this is thrilling in that he is hitting his milestones, it is a little sad to think that he will never be as little as he is right now!

We went to the pediatrician this morning and it seems that he is gaining weight nicely! He is now 8 lbs 8 ozs (up a pound and a 3 ounces in 2 weeks!) and also grew more than an inch. The doctor says he is looking good and everything is on track. He now gets to have some tummy time every day and start taking some vitamins to supplement his milk.

Today is also the first day that Tim is back in the office. I lay in bed last night feeling like it was the last day of summer vacation. We miss him dearly and I am a little nervous of being on my own to handle this slightly-bigger-little man. After the doctor appointment, I dropped Tim off at the train and headed back to our now quieter home. I fed the little man and then convinced him to actually hang out (literally) with me in the sling - which is a baby carrier so I can have 2 arms free! Taking advantage of my hands, I made up the bed in the guest room and have been on the phone with our benefits administrator, not to mention getting online to check email and blog! The little munchkin is starting to wake, and I want to eat my lunch before he does - so I am off!!
