1.  Mark weighed 9 pounds, 6 ounces at his one-week doctor’s appointment.  Hooray for passing his birth weight already!  And hooray for a baby who is in LOVE with nursing!

2. I know you saw this picture already but I just wanted to point out that it was taken at 3:00 in the morning.

I’d say we look pretty awesome for it being 3:00 in the morning and just four and a half hours past an 18 hour labor.  Also, note the boy blanket.

3. Ellie loves helping change Mark’s diapers.  As in, it’s probably the most thrilling activity of the day.  And lucky for her, we get to do it many times a day!!
