3 Weeks and Growing

We had a weight check appointment with our doctor yesterday...and Charlie is already up to 10 pounds 6 ounces and is 22 inches long.  He's gone from being in the 50th percentile for weight and height to above 75th in just a few short weeks!  The picture on the left shows just how tall he's getting (not quite the length of a pillow).  He's on his way out of the newborn clothing and diapers, too!  Hard to believe in just 3 short weeks he's grown and changed so much.  We are enjoying longer sleeps at night and longer awake periods during the day (well, at least the past couple have been like that).  This afternoon we bundled up and headed out for a walk in the sunshine.  Mark carried Charlie in the Baby Bjorn (front carrier) under his jacket and they kept each other warm in the 9*F weather!

Charlie is quite animated and is such a happy guy!  We are enjoying every day and are so glad for this special time we have together as a family.

Oh boy, what a perfect little guy! It's fun to see these pics and makes me excited to see Charlie (and you guys too!) again in person. I'm so thankful for your family!
