And We're Back!


We've kind of been neglecting the blog here lately...but I'm sure you understand :) As a spin-off from the post below - we still have some exponential growth going on. Cross is growing bigger every day and I'm growing smaller every day (thank goodness!). I had some major water retention at the end of pregnancy.

Happy 2 Weeks, Cross!!

We had quite an eventful day so here's the short version: Cross had his two-week follow up appointment with the pediatrician today. He is 1 inch longer than he was at birth! And is up to 6 lbs 9 oz (he went down to 5 lbs and 12 oz after he was born). He's taking on quite a growth spurt! The doc said he is doing fabulous.

Here's one thing you won't believe...... he can ROLL OVER! Yes, I'm not making this up. He can roll from flat on his back to his side, back to his back, and over to the other side. I kid you not. The pediatrician said that is something babies do at 4 months! He's such a show off. LOL :)

Oh yes, and the umbilical cord came off today. Now it's in a little ziplock until we decide what exactly to do with it...hehe.
