1 month stats

don't have much time tonight, but parker had his 1 month visit on monday and the (new) doctor said he looks perfect! (minus a little diaper rash) a few vital statistics:

birth:
8 lbs 9 ounces (i thought he was going to be huge!)
19 inches

3 days old:
7 lbs 15 ounces (normal to lose weight the first few days doc said)
20 1/2 inches

1 month:
9 lbs 9 ounces
22 1/2 inches

good job, buddy! you gained a whole pound this month! and GREW 3 1/2 inches??? is that normal? possible answers: a. yes it is normal (unlikely) b. they measured you wrong at the hospital (my guess) c. babies "stretch out" their first few weeks of life.

tomorrow google will help solve the mystery. love yall (yay for sunshine, finally!!!)

wonderful weekend

parks,

saturday you went to your first wedding and were an absolute doll! you slept most of the time (what's new) and everyone loved holding you. there are about 15 u of a girls who are your biggest fans. it rained all day, which meant that everyone had to stay inside the winery instead of dance as planned, but we still had a great time. there wasn't an ideal spot for dad and i to change you, so we made do in the food prep room (the only other room in the building). you definitely peed all over a bag of bread (oops!), but luckily we threw it away before anyone saw your little present. love you oh so much!!!
