4 Weeks Old!

I can hardly believe that Jeremiah has been here for 4 weeks already. Time certainly flies when you're having fun! And when you sleep in 2 hour blocks, and don't go to work, and therefore have no idea what day it is! I can't believe how big Jeremiah has gotten in the past month-- last weigh in (yesterday) he was 11 lbs 1 oz! The boy likes to eat, that's for sure. We think that Jeremiah's locks of blond hair are just getting thicker, and his mullet (which he was born with) is getting longer. Yikes! I am SO tempted to snip off the mullet part.... but then I think that the look (business in the front, party in the back!) might actually suit Jeremiah, so we'll leave it for awhile.



Hopefully in the picture you can see the extent of the mullet. I should have known that only Adam's son would come out with a mullet (back in the day, Adam sported a mullet... and also a rat tail... these things I found out AFTER I married him) and sideburns-- I'm just glad he didn't come out with a goatee! :)

Now that Jeremiah is a mature 4 weeks old, he is really starting to love bath time!





Okay, "love" might be a bit strong. He is starting to tolerate bath time. But, hey, that's progress!

Today was an absolutely gorgeous day (sunny and 65 degrees!), so Jeremiah, Molly, and I decided to take a walk around the neighborhood. It was a huge success!



I figured that we better get out and enjoy the weather now, since they are forecasting 36 degrees and snow on Saturday. :( Spring sure was nice while it lasted!

Jeremiah is starting to suffer withdrawl from being spoiled. Thankfully next week he can get his fix-- hopefully Grandma Wissink and Great-Grandma Doorenbos will be coming down for a day, AND then Grandma and Grandpa Wiers are coming next weekend! I know that they will ALL be shocked at how big Jeremiah is now!

  1. Wow, that boy is really growing!! Now, just take a look at him, in your mind deduct about 4 ounces, and that's what his Uncle Ben was at birth!! (no epidural, either, by the way!)

  3. Forgot to mention, glad to see that he's getting good use out of the little "duckie." Dual purpose, keeps him warm and also serves to protect his modesty. :)
