Faces of Abel

Abel is getting big! We can't believe he's already 5 weeks old. We had a doctor's appointment and he weighs 9 lbs 1 oz! At his 2 week appt, he weighed 7 lbs 3 oz, which means he has almost gained 2 lbs in 3 weeks! That is ridiculous. He is going to be a chunkster!

He's doing well. He loves to kick his legs when lying on a blanket or when getting his diaper changed, he is starting to really like baths, he clearly enjoys eating, and is even starting to smile more - though I'm not sure yet if he knows why he's smiling. Sleeping is getting a little better at night - hopefully we'll get longer stretches in a couple weeks. He has already changed so much! Here are some pictures of his faces.




I love this outfit - so cute! J's parents got it for him.

I know every parent thinks their child is the cutest thing ever, but I think Abel really is the cutest. :)

I had him sitting in the corner of the couch to take the pictures, but he can't really hold himself up very well, so this is when he fell over. So this is "The Backside of Abel".

  1. Love the "backside of Abel." I can't even tell you how many times Landon has fallen over like that on the couch! Sounds like things are going really well. That's so awesome! Congrats on the poundage. In my limited experience chunky baby = happy baby. Looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks(I hope) :)
