The big boy gets bigger
Simon will be two weeks old tomorrow and he has already outgrown all his newborn clothes. They’re supposed to fit babies until they are one month old or 10 pounds and at our last appointment with our midwife he was already 10 pounds 5 ounces. He gained 13 ounces in five days!
Simon is sleeping with us for now - mostly to make my life easier since he’s breastfeeding so frequently. He loves to sleep on one of Christopher’s thin foam pillows.

Both sets of grandparents are trying to pick their names. Janet seems to have settled on Gramma and my mom is trying to pick between Grammy and Nana. My mom picked Granddad for my father, but his theory is that Simon will call him whatever he wants and I’m sure he’s right. Ross is still working through his list.


We took Simon to Chudleigh’s apple farm on Saturday. We picked the cutest pumpkin from the patch to take home.

such a cute little picture. hey maybe we will actually have a small baby and we can use those newborn clothes
What a precious bundle he is! I can’t wait for his first visit to Gramma’s house.
He’s looking big and healthy - You’ll have to take him to Cape Breton for a visit.
wow, what a little pumpkin you have there. GOT MILK? Hee Hee….that will do it! Did you even get those newborn diapers on him? Jillian wore 3 I think before I realized they were cutting into her 9lb 4 oz butt!! Does the big guy have a middle name?
Can’t wait to see him and you in person Sunday!
