Camping with Daddy

Baby Shawn, 2.0

I was so excited when Jamie was born. He looked a lot like me. Now that he's lost that newborn look, he's looking more and more like his dad. Which isn't bad, I was just hoping I might get one kid to look like me, a little.

We have fallen in love with the Playseum in Bethesda. Awesome. Emmeline likes the dress up room, the animal room, the grocery store, the music area, and getting her nails painted (for $1!!). She and Shawn were sampling the wigs.

Pediatrician Update

Today was Jamie's 6-8 week check (he's 7 weeks). My little peanut has grown from 7 lbs even to 10 lbs 13 oz! Chunker! Of course, I looked back at Emmy's baby book, and she weighed 11.2 at 7 weeks, so he's still behind...but not by much! He also grew 2 inches in these 7 weeks. I knew he was getting longer, but 2 inches is a lot. Jamie's in this weird middle size where most newborn size clothes are really too small, but the 0-3 month stuff is huge on him. He owns about 6 onesies that really fit. And when you vomit on minimum three outifts a day, this means we have enough clothes for two days at a time.
Emmeline is enjoying all the time we've been spending outside, up until this weekend when it got nasty. She and Shawn went camping over the long weekend, and she had an awesome time kayaking, and swimming in the lake. Alas, I don't have any pictures, but I'm sure I can wrangle some from Jessica.
