The big weigh in...

I was planning on updating this last week, but now that I am back to work that didn't happen. I am tired at night and usually have a lot more to do than update the blog. Tonight I thought I would take the opportunity between bath time and bed time to get this updated. So far going back to work has been okay. I hate leaving Carter every day but I am so thankful that I can leave him with Emily when McKay can't stay home with him! There is nothing like being able to leave your baby with one of your best friends, who you know is a wonderful mother to her own little girl. It deffinetly helps put me at ease while I am at work. McKay is able to be home with him 2 - 3 days a week, I am also so thankful for that. I think I would have a harder time if one person got to spend more time with Carter than I do! :) It is nice to be able to split it between the two of them! McKay has been great with the whole thing. Today I came home and dinner was ready, he worked one of his side jobs but got home just before Carter and I. Then he cleaned everything up so that I could just spend time with Carter. He really is a great husband, how did I get so lucky???


Anyway onto the weigh in. We took Carter to the doctor last Wednesday and here are the results.

Birth: 6lbs and 18 Inches


2 Months: 10 lbs 4 Oz and 22.5 Inches


The doctor said he looks great. He had his shots that day and did great. He slept the rest of the day, it was McKay's first day home with him and he didn't even want to wake up to eat. So it ended up being a pretty easy first day.


Here are a couple of pics that Erika took while she was here. She always captures great photo's with her nice camera. It so makes me wish I had a nicer one!


I love this one of my mom, Carter and McKay, it just captures McKay's constant goofiness.


Happy Halloween...

We didn't get Carter an official costume this year. Since he has no idea what is going on. We did find this great little owl hat though, so he wore that all day. This is just before bed time so he is wearing his Halloween PJ's that his cousin Jace picked out for him! Thanks Jace, Livie and Sonja for the cute PJ's. :)
