2 weeks!
Preston is growing so fast....he turned 2 weeks old on Monday. Had his check up with the doctor and is doing really well. They were a little worried about his weight when we left the hospital because he'd lost 7 oz in 2 days. We rechecked his weight 2 days later and he'd lost another oz. and was down to 6 lbs. 1 oz. At his 2 week check up he weighed 7 lbs 6 oz! Can you believe it?! Little fatty gained a lot of weight! I think I just have good milk. He also grew 1 3/4 inches...for a grand total of 19 3/4 inches. He's getting some chunky little cheeks and his little arms and legs are getting fat. He is still tiny but he'll be big soon!
I would like to say that I'm the perfect Mom and the perfect wife....but I live in reality! I love my 5 kids more than I can even explain! I have the most adorable husband, who would do anything for me and his kids. I try my best to be everything they need me to be. The truth is, I'm human. I'm a working mother. My house is cleaned when I can get to it, and the laundry is never completely caught up. Life is juggled between work, cleaning the house, helping kids with school and homework, soccer and football practices/games, and band and choir concerts. Of course we squeeze in time for family trips and fun outings.....and if there is time left over, we do like to sleep! I have a chaotic, crazy, and very happy family. In the end, that's all that matters!
