Happy Baby!

So when Jude was born he was a little chunk - 8 lbs 11 oz. Here's a picture to prove it:

And here he is in his going home outfit:

And 4+ months later, my little skinny boy still fits in it!


He has a doctor's appointment on Friday, so we'll see just how long this guy is. He eats alot, he's just long and skinny, I swear!

OK so here is Jude's first documented smile:


But now he has it perfected:


Ha! Two posts in one day, suckers!

Sleeping Collage

I know, I know.  I suck at blogging.  I even have this fantasmic computer and I just haven't had the time to do much yet.  My new place in Michigan doesn't quite fit our stuff as well as our last apartment.  So to me it looks like the furniture section at Salvation Army.  Everything is obviously mismatched and most of it's a hand me down :)  It's not very eclectic looking or anything.  I think it's Barry's dream to live at Salvation Army - his version of a shopping heaven.  But I would rather live at Nordstrom, so this living room is killing me.  So that's where all of Jude's nap time goes - to me trying to organize and decorate this shack.

So I took a class yesterday at the Mac store about iPhoto (which is ridiculously awesome) and so as I was putting my new skills to work, I noticed that we must love Jude alot while he's sleeping because there's about 900 pictures of him doing so.  Here's just a few of them, in chronological order:

1 Week Old - Check out those lips!

10 Days Old - This wasn't staged, Barry took it while we were sleeping.

4 Weeks - Trying unsuccessfully to wake him up to eat.

2 Months - So tired he completely slept through getting undressed to get ready for bed.

3.5 Months - Hoarding his stuff on the drive to Michigan.


What a sweet heart. I'll post some awake pictures too in a second post...
