A Black Thumb



*More pictures have been added to our photo site.*

I have a tendency to kill plants. Actually, it would probably better be worded as not being able to keep them alive. I guess if you wanted to kill a plant on purpose it wouldn't be that hard. In any case, Casey has always teased me about this. Ethan had his two week appointment with his pediatrician on Friday. He peed all over the scale when they were weighing him and pooped (in his diaper, thank goodness) when he was being examined. But, he's grown an entire inch since he was born and now weighs 8 pounds, 14 oz, which is 4 oz above his birth weight. On the way home from the doctor's office, Casey turned to me and said, "well, at least you don't have a black thumb when it comes to growing babies." True.

Too cute. Isn't it crazy how quick they grow?

Sorry, that should have been "quickly"

I bet that was a sight seeing him pee while being weighed. He would have weighed more if he had waited! I got pee'd upon for the first time today. Audrey was in those swim diapers - the smallest size. I was holding her while checking out at Target and before heading out to swim. The swimmers weren't tight enough I guess and I had to clean up the floor in front of the register! Oops!
