2 weeks



It's been 2 weeks. We're getting used to this little guy and i think he's getting pretty used to us. He's a pretty good baby. He likes tummy time. He eats really well. He sleeps pretty well. He doesn't cry much. And he's just so sweet and cute!


We both had our two week appointments yesterday. Isaac has gained nearly 1 pound since we left the hospital, putting him at 7lbs 8 oz. He also grew a half inch, putting him at 20 in. He's doing great!


He's also hitting a growth spurt. Ate for a good 2 hours this morning, was awake for 2.5 hours and now is passed out.




Pooping face, yes i took a picture for embarrassing him later in life :)




I'm also doing well. Everything is healing how it should and I've lost 19lbs so far. I suspect that the 13lbs that wasn't him was all water weight. The picture above is how swollen my feet were a few days before the birth and the picture below is my feet two weeks after.



I never thought i would think my feet are sexy but dang those are some nice looking feet :)













We've taken a few walks with him. It's been kind of hard with him not really having a schedule yet and not wanting to take him out when it's super hot but i think we're figuring it out.


PS doesn't his had look extremely huge in that picture? I never noticed until i was looking at it just now. Does he have a future in Basketball?

Yes, his hands do look so big. I noticed that the day he was born.
He is so sweet and cute. I had a dream I was holding him yesterday!
Your feet look wonderful.

My feet swelled up a couple days AFTER having Asher. I looked down and thought,"Where the hell are my ankles?!?!?! I was never so in love with my ankles as when they came back, lol.

Isaac is dang adorable. Can't wait to see that baby! If you want, the Corn Boil is Aug 21st.

Melissa,
My feet totally got more swollen after the birth too i just didn't take any pictures. It took a good week and a half for them to go back down too! Makes me hope for winter babies because that might help a little.

Ps. I need your address. Email me or send it to me on facebook :)

Yes, he's got big hands with nice long fingers. The pictures are great, he has tiny little smiles already! I sure do miss him. And I miss ray ray too.

Your feet look DARN FINE. I can hardly wait for our pedicures. Love you!
