Getting Into A Groove

Tomorrow Simon will be four weeks old. He has grown quite a bit this week. According to the Wii Fit, Simon is almost 8lbs. We'll get him officially weighed on Monday at his 4-week check up, but the Wii Fit seems to be pretty accurate.

We are starting to get into a groove. We can predict how long he will nap and are starting to get things done around the house while he is sleeping. It is nice to feel productive again.

Over the weekend Paul's sister Julie visited us and my aunt Sherry was in town from Oregon. It was great to spend time with family!

Sherry got us a really cool gift - a book called "Cooking for Baby" by Lisa Barnes. It has some great recipes in it - things like buckwheat crepes and roasted red pepper and goat cheese spread. Very elegant food for a baby! We can't wait to try things out on him in 5 months or so. In the meantime we'll just read the recipes.



My mom has some really good pictures of Sherry and Simon, so I'll have to wait to get those from her and then I will post those. Here are a few other pictures from the weekend.
