Only six weeks?

Jason is growing fast! Recently someone asked how many months old he was... only six weeks! Yes, he is a big boy. He's lost his neck and is starting to get the rolls, chubby cheeks and thighs. He's scrumptious!


Everyone is doing well... Kara and Ben have started to play more interactively together. It's great because they can keep each other occupied for quite awhile. The dinosaurs say hello and go to parties with the Barbies, they read books to each other.

Kara and Ben both love being near Jason. Since he is looking around so much and noticing things in his environment, they now argue over who Jason is looking at... Even Grandpa asks, "why isn't he looking at me?" We all want to feel the love :)

Life on the farm...

We're spending some time in Parlier at Pampa and Grandma 'Rene's house, which means daily walks on the ranch, feeding the koi and giving treats to Rolo, the dog. Kara and Ben love to feed the fish and Ben is always on the look out for the large white "shark" that lives in the koi pond. Kara was very proud that on today's walk, she picked her first Asian pear apple all by herself. If you look closely, you'll see it on the rock beside her along with the leaf and flower she picked up along the way.





Jason has found his time in Parlier to be very relaxing... Oh, what I would give for a nap!

Growing... growing

Because of Jason's jaundice, he went to the doctor at two weeks and three weeks... At his three week appointment, he weighed in at 9 lbs. 5 oz. and the nurse and I were both shocked. He's a good little eater, this one!





We're all loving baby Jason... his soft skin, the little noises he makes when he eats and sleeps, his big eyes looking at us, the sweetness of being a baby.
