growing up so fast

at valens doctor apt yesterday he wighed 9lbs 1oz !! he was 7lbs 10oz two weeks ago... that is really good! dahlia gained about a pound a month. and he also has grown 2 inches since he was born.. isnt that nuts! so last night i didnt wake him up to feed him, i just let him wake me up. so after six hours he started crying. it was so nice to get a big chunk of sleep!

after i wrote the previous entry valen screamed for three hours. not sure why! he was pretty good today though, just had trouble falling asleep on his own, he wants me to hold him. and it was way too hot to swaddle him so he seems to wake himself up a little easier by whacking himself in the face (= i dont mind holding him, but dahlia talks loudly and wants to sit by me, so he cant really fall asleep when she is poking at him and jabbering on in his ear(= it is cute though!

I can totally relate. Lilly seems to sleep way better when Ethan is away at Grandma's. She is always waking up at the sound of his voice or he'll grab her leg and shake it and oh...she's awake! : ) Love, Misty

I think Valen is going to be a big lad someday.

Babies grow up too fast! It's such a novelty to tell people you have a 2 weeks old. Before you know it, your baby is 4 1/2 months old and the novelty to other people has worn off. But, every day Maddox gets more and more fun.
