He weighs how much?!?!


Take a good look at him. Swanny Jr. at the ripe age of 5 weeks old (minus 2 days in this picture...) Just how much do you think he's weighing in at?? I'll give you a chance to think about it.



12 pounds 12 ounces. Sure enough. He's now more than 3 pounds over his birth weight. Ata-boy!

Pediatrician's report on Monday was that he is healthy and looking good so I won't worry that one of my baby development books says that week 6 (which he began on Wednesday)--baby weighs 9 1/2 pounds....Yeah right.

What a cutie! And look at him look up at his momma! You can't expect him to be at 9.5 pounds, when he started out at 9.5 pounds. He's going to be a big guy!

He is so cute and I can't believe how much he looks like his big sister!! I'm sure Emily is proud to have her baby look just like her.

Awww...I love the picture with Swanny Jr and his mommy.

Nothing wrong with a healthy baby. Maybe a future in the NFL? He's changing so fast but definitely still looks like Peanut!

What a little fuzz-monkey! He is cute from head to toe! He's a sturdy fella, but wouldn't you rather have that then frail? :)

Peanut is SO proud!

Jen, I absolutely love reading your blog and laugh out loud. You and your hubby can really write a good post. I just wanted to add that my son was born at 6 lbs 7 oz. 19 1/2 in. and at his one year check-up (June 14, 08) he weighed in at 26 lbs 14 oz. and 31 1/2 in. long. What are we feeding these kids! Gotta love a big boy.
