~Our little guy had a rough two-week birthday yesterday after his circumcision, SO, I wasn't able to get him in a happy picture until last night. With eight years in between sons, I didn't remember the first day of the surgery was so miserable. :(
He's looking great, though, and gaining weight. Yesterday he measured 1/2 an inch longer than just 9 days ago, and he's already pushing a whopping 7 lbs. 5 ounces. His doctor even commented on a "double chin." I think you can see a bit of it in the picture below. :)
~My Beloved and I, so silly we are, decided we'd enjoy lunch out together yesterday, but sweet Jedediah had other plans. We had just been seated and ordered when precious Son started his "Mom, can't you tell I'm in pain here?" intermittant wails. One of the blessings of being this far along in parenthood is that you learn to adapt and take things in stride.
So, I just went to the car to comfort Jedediah, my Beloved ate alone, and then sweetly brought my steak dinner away as "take-out." :) I have to say, there was a very happy camper in the house who enjoyed that steak and potato when we got home. Can you guess who that would be?
Jedediah was feeling so much better by last night, and he slept wonderfully. Two weeks already? It feels like he's been with us forever and yet, it seems like he arrived just yesterday. Oh, we're so blessed!
Love,
Absolutely loved this post, as always : )
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of Ella and Jedediah are beautiful. Sorry you didn't get to eat lunch with Ben. So glad Jedediah is feeling better. Thanks for taking the time to post and share the pictures. I really look forward to that each day.My heart is in NM with the Poffs.

I would not have thought it possible for Jedediah to become even more handsome in two short weeks, but he has!! Sorry you missed your lunch out. Your other children are so good with the teeny one!
