This blog documents the thoughts, activities and emotion of our path to parenthood. On September 4, 2008 our lives changed as we found out that this was a possiblity. We hope that this blog insipres us to be introspective through the process and allows us to communicate the progress to our loved ones. It is now November 2009 and looking back it has been an amazing journey. We can't wait to see what the future holds for us and are so happy that we have people that follow us.

Labor Day Weekend!
OK first of all, how cute is this picture? We had a bunch done, but of course our favorite (and everyone else's) is the one with his tounge out. That's my boy!
This weekend started off with a 4 month checkup for the baby. He did great as always, and the report from the doctor was wonderful. He is 17 pounds 9.5 ounces, and 27.75 inches long. That's up over 2 pounds and 2.5 inches in 2 months. All that formula he is eating is doing its job, clearly. He tolerated his shots just fine and we got the "all clear" for solid food.
We made our own sweet potato puree on Friday night, and started feeding it to him on Saturday. He really took to it, and though it was a bit different than the oatmeal or rice he was used to, I think he enjoyed it. We made some peas today, we will introduce them tomorrow and see how it goes. The "funniest" thing (not so funny actually) is when he sneezes with a mouthful of food. It just goes everywhere, and there is nothing you can do. We also noticed that we go through a lot of bibs and burp clothes these days... not a surprise.
Just a few short days until we head to the beach. I cannot tell you how badly we need this vacation. I'll blog about the trip next week.
