My Growing Boy/1st Week Back

Look at that sweet face 

My baby boy is growing!! He went to the dr yesterday, and he is now 10 lbs! That makes a breastfeeding momma happy. I constantly worry about him getting enough or if I am producing enough or if I am eating right. You name it, I worry about it. So hearing how much he has gained made me happy and also helped me realize I can chill out a little.

So here are his stats:

Birth: 6lbs 5 oz, 19 in 

(5 lbs 15 oz when we left the hospital)

1 Month: 7 lbs 5 oz, 21 1/4 in

2 Months: 10 lbs, 22 1/2 in

He's growing so fast! 

This week I went back to work. It was hard to leave him, and I missed spending our days together, but I was happy to see these sweet faces again:

My other babies

And they were all so excited to see me! It feels good to know I was missed. I cannot believe how good they are doing. They're reading so well compared to the beginning of the year. The best thing about teaching 1st grade besides all the sweet lovins you get, is definitely the HUGE growth you can see. It is much easier to see the growth there than in 3rd.

Silly faces

To help me transition this week our family took turns watching Cade. It was nice having him in town with me and getting pictures of him all day long. I dread leaving him here in Greenwood next week, but really think we are going to love our babysitter. She seems like a great person and so sweet! 1 week away from my baby down, 15 to go!
