Joy came the other day to check up on Max. As it happens this was the first time she'd been to the house without Dad there. Having both grandmothers in attendance more than made up for it from what I hear.
I've been told Joy busted out a version of a scale closely resembling a Johnny Jump-Up - the kind of which hangs in the doorway. (For some reason I just keep picturing an old meat hook...)
17 lbs 12 oz.
This thought crossed my mind the other day: Our son might grow up to be bigger than his dad.
I know, I know, it happens all the time. It was just one of those fleeting, out-of-the-blue thoughts of which had never crossed my mind up to this point.
I also know whatever size he is right now makes absolutely no difference as to how he'll end up. We're just glad he's happy and healthy. (VERY healthy.)

Just wanted to say "thanks" for the chance to observe the Early On checkup. I'm impressed!
And you nailed it when you said Joy's name fit her perfectly. She IS such a joy, any you're all so blessed to have her be a part of Max's milestones.
Keep up the fantastic job you're doing as parenting.
Each day is a new adventure, and memory.
xoxo
