And in this corner...

weighing in at 15 lb, 4 oz - Ethan the Great!!


Yep, we just had his 2 month wellness check this morning, my little guy is already over 15 pounds. He's in the 95 percentile for weight, 90 percentile for length at 23 7/8 inches. He also got 4 shots - ouch! He was not happy. So when the nurse left, we breast-fed & he fell asleep.


That's a picture of Ethan and his buddy Andy, Monica's baby. Andy is 10 days older than Ethan. Aren't they precious? About 30 minutes after this picture was taken, Ethan's diaper leaked on my lap! He was wearing a thick fleece outfit, so I didn't notice right away. I had to change his diaper & clothes on the floor of the star.buck's restroom. Yes, they do not have a changing table in there. I'm glad the diaper bag came with a changing mat!

This weekend is DH's holiday party. DH's mother is coming to visit & babysit. We'll see how it goes. This is the longest I'll be away from Ethan. I'll be nursing or pumping until the minute we leave & again as soon as we get home.

What is in your breastmilk? Wow, that is incredible! He looks like a big boy, but I thought he'd be like 14lbs. I just hope he doesn't go to the Sooners or Aggies because then Andy will have to line up against him!!!! The shots were crummy right? Did Josh go? What did he think? Matthew always makes me hold Andy when he gets shots or gets blood taken (during the three jaundice visits) so Andy will hate me not him.

Glad the boys got to "hang out" with each other! Sorry to hear about Ethan's accident. The way Monica blogs, it's usually Andy with the messes!

Monica, I didn't tell you that Josh & I are part of a program to breed the perfect football player?? You know how the Aggies are - maroon carrots, cloned cats, hybrid football players.

Thankfully Ethan's gaining weight while I'm slowly losing it.

Yes the shots sucked! He howled! Josh didn't come along this time, he had to miss out on the fun.

Lori, Ethan 'likes' to make messes too! We moved him up to Size 2 diapers, hope that helps with the messes.

They're beautiful together...makes me a little sad though.
