2 weeks


We had our two week follow-up and Harrison is a growing boy. He is now 8 lbs 14 oz and is 22 inches long. He was also circumcised yesterday, which he took like a champion. I held his hand through most of it, and proudly declare that I did not faint, throw up, or even cry. And on a similar note, my boy has learned how to pee all over himself and mommy. I was called out of bed in the middle of the night to come assist Patrice, who had just been peed on.
Patrice is really hoping to get some professional pictures done of him, and would like to know if anyone has any suggestions (umm.. Kimmie, I'm looking in your direction).
So that's the scoop. Everyone seems to be adjusting well to each other, and for some reason I haven't had the burning desire to watch movies 24/7 like I usually do. However, I did watch my first movie with him last Saturday and Sunday (neither his nor my attention spans last very long right now). That's some good quality bonding time if you ask me.

Harrison is way cute! My goal is to come and visit sometime next week so I will call and see what day and time works best for you.

Then of course there's always Tiff Allred...she did a much better job than the "professional" we hired for our wedding. And I'm sure she'd love to see Harrison.

Oh my heck! He is so stinkin cute! I can't wait to pinch his little cheeks!! He is so adorable! You know I am more than willing to come take pictures of him anytime you want or I know of some good people too! Just let me know! Isn't it funny how your priorities kind of change when the come into your lives? :) But I'm glad you still have time for the occasional movie!!

Ya good luck with that pee thing I just gets better. I'm glad she woke you up to help you should be up anyway. That's my motto if i don't sleep neither does Troy.

He is really cute. I mean that! We can't wait to meet him someday...who knows when that will be. I hope all is going well with breast/bottle feeding and that you figured out what is best for YOU.

WOW! He looks like his daddy. What a cutie. Congratulations to both of you.
Love you,

So nice to see him awake! He's so cute! I like Kiddie Kandids, since they are just for kids, they really know what they are doing.
