7 Weeks

A couple of weeks ago, my Mom and sister Amy came to visit for a week. As you can see from the photo, it was love at first sight, just as it had been when Benjamin was born! While they were here, Tyler had his one month check-up where he weighed in at 10lbs.2oz. and measured 22.5in.
I am proud to say his doctor referred to my milk as "liquid gold" seeing that he had gained 3lbs. 1oz.from his lowest weight, and grew 3inches in one months time!

Following the last of our visitors for a while, the boys and I have begun to get into somewhat of a routine. I have found that it is all about finding the balance, although it can feel like a juggling act at times, which can sometimes be frustrating, othertimes almost comical! For the most part, we have found a groove of our own that is working so far, and that's all that matters! Needless to say, we cherish our morning time with Jason prior to him leaving for work at 8:30am, and always look forward to his return home from work at 7pm.

Jason is slowly but surely healing from his run-in and severe reaction to poison oak following a golf outing, and Benjamin is enjoying activities with Mommy while Tyler is sleeping, such as baking cookies in the photo shown. As you can see from the most recent photo of Tyler taken today, he is smiling more often and cooing which we are all loving, and it brings back some of our most favorite memories of Benjamin at this stage.
