6 weeks

Well, almost. I took Jace for his 6-week well check up today with the midwife. I just love that well baby care is part of her services ... and included in our cost for a homebirth. Its a bummer we won't be here to enjoy it going forward!
Anyway, our "little" man now weighs 12 lb, 12 oz and is 23 1/2 inches long. I don't remember his head circumference, but all his measurements were in the 95th + percentile. The boy does like to eat! He's been wearing 3-6 month clothes for the past couple weeks, which is pretty much par for the course for babies in our family!
He's getting to be lots of fun for the other kids since he's smiling and "talking." Any time his eyes are open, they are in his face! No lack of love for our little "bubby" (as Jake calls him!).

Wow! Where has the time gone? What a handsome bubby!!! Are you sure you can't stay here so we can watch him grow up with his brothers and sisters? ;o)
