While Joellen is now only 6 pounds from her pre-pregnancy weight and I am down to less than 2 pounds away from my target loss of 25 pounds, Asher has put on over a pound and a half since we left the hospital! Joellen weighed herself without and then with the baby and lo and behold, our little guy now weighs 10 lbs! that's right, he's put on more than 10% of his body weight in less than two weeks. In fact I guess it's closer to 20% since he was just over 8lbs by the time we left the birthing center.
Anyway, all that to say I guess something is going according to plan :) Joellen is excited to go out to the pool at mom & dad's this summer and it's looking like her goal to lose all her pregnancy weight by June may not have been so far fetched after all (as some would have thought - not me of course). Asher is healthy and it's no wonder he's been eating every hour since he's growing so fast. Some of his wardrobe has already reached end of life... Guess we'd better bump up that clothing budget for next year!
