You don't raise heroes, you raise sons.
And if you treat them like sons, they'll turn out to be heroes, even if it's just in your own eyes.

Growing So Fast

Joshua is growing so fast. When he was born he weighed 7lb 8.8oz and was 20 1/4" long. Yesterday morning I weighed him at home (which may not be all that accurate, but gives us a good guess) and he weighed 10lbs. Using a tape measure from my sewing stuff he measured 23". Do you know what that means?!?!?!?!? Look at the length/weight on the clothes next time you buy them. We went to Target and bought him some sleepers and some pants, since the ones he had were starting to look more like shorts.....we actually bought 6 month sizes. Even bought some 9 month ones to have on hand if he keeps growing as fast as he is right now. I've been hearing that growth spurts come about every three weeks....which means by this time next week we'll be going through another one. Oh man....during those times he eats about every hour to hour and a half. He is absolutely beautiful. I'll load up some new pictures from this weekend soon.
