Noah Update

Noah has gained a pound in the last week! He's now 8lbs 14oz.

"Sweet blessing/Eye of the Tiger"

So I (ben) am the primary blogger on thebiggerblog but Jen wanted me to add this pic of Noah and I guess she thought that she would also suggest a title. She said, "how bout something like Sweet Blessing?". I chuckled cause I was thinking something more like "Fierce Tiger!". So we compromised!

Anyhow, Noah is friggin awesome! He has slept really well the last two nights. He is soothed easily and loves "belly time" with both of us!

This was our attempt at a portrait of Noah. I just laid him on his Moby Wrap with some day light shining in and used some iPhoto effects and there you go.

He was born on April 4th, weighed 7lbs 6oz. and was 22 inches long. He has noticeably long feet and fingers! We joke, if babies work the same as puppy's he's gonna be a big boy!

New Chapter Starts Tonight

Today is the day for Jen and me to move from husband and wife to mom and dad! It's really weird watching the "page turn" arrive. There's all kinds of preparations that have taken place over the last 6 months or so. Even two days ago we were doing final...well Jen was doing final house cleaning projects in preparation. But yesterday as the page in this chapter was already standing on edge, we couldn't read what was on this side or the other side of the page... We didn't know how we were supposed to spend our last full day of just "us". So we pretty much did the same ol' stuff. Got lunch at Qdoba, took a long nap, the normal stuff. But today we are able to see the first page of the new chapter and it's reads, "pack the truck, pray, charge batteries, figure out the camcorder..."
