Our gigantic baby.

Yes, Thomas is huge. (and so are his lovable cheeks).







We thought Jacob was gigantic...and he was.
*Refresher picture*



But, we just took Thomas for his 4 month check-up (at 5 months because at 4 months he was in the hospital...yay, it's been a month already!). The child was 17 pounds 6 oz. and 26 1/4 inches; he's longer than ~65% of the kids his age...and obviously quite well-fed. With his allergic system, he won't be getting foods until at least 6 months; fortunately, that doesn't appear to be a problem for him!



Random photo: this is from Monday morning before I left for work. I had been afforded the 6" to the left of Thomas and Daniel had the space on the right of Jacob. Ridiculous (Jacob had joined us only about 15 minutes before I had to get up for work anyway....I complain but actually LOVE the snuggle time).

  1. It's so hard to believe that he is five months old already! My, how time flies...

    Much love to you all! We can't wait to see you in August.

  2. Wow. Check out them cheeks. He is just too adorable. I cannot wait for your arrival to Green Pond this summer. I've heard all about Jacob's phone calls and it seems that he is talking up a storm. When did he get so old?! ha. They certainly are two sleeping beauties.

    Ill be waiting for you kids to get here, ha.

    Hi all....We just got internet today in GP. It has rained for several straight days, so we did some outdoor work "singing in the rain". Saw lots of earthworms, Jacob. Thanks for calling us! We loved our conversations about "things we'll do when you visit" in August. Wow, we wish we had your excellent memory of activities past! You asked about sparklers and fishing and basketball and puzzles and worms and swimming and wagons and toys and bicycles,etc. We'll do all of that and more, sweet boy!

    Thomas, you're a precious bundle that we can't wait to cuddle !!
    Love to all...
