Twenty Weeks

Dearest Joshua David~

Hello little man!  Today you are twenty weeks old!  The weeks seem to just fly by!

Daddy had off today, so it was "Family Friday!"  :-)  We had to take you to the pediatrician's office this morning for one more shot .... guess how much you weigh now .... 10 lbs 14 ozs!!  Whoa!  You gained 10 ozs in one week!  I had a feeling you were going to shoot up because you've been taking bigger bottles this week.  :-)  You'll be 11 lbs by the end of the weekend!  Oh, and your temperature was good too .... 98.5 degrees.  :-)  

You cried with the shot, but daddy and I calmed you.  You were fine once we held you.  You had a little circus band aid on your left leg afterward.  

Since we were out, and it was a beautiful day, we stayed out to enjoy the weather.  :-)  We ran an errand to Target and ate some BBQ for lunch!  You sat in the car seat in the booth with us, but you slept through lunch. 

Afterward, you got to meet your (Great) Uncle Laurence .... Gigi's older brother.  We went to his office to talk about possibly getting a bigger house for us.  He's in the real estate business.  You started to stir when we got there, but then slept during the whole conversation.  :-P

This afternoon we played on the couch together and did your laundry.  This evening, we were all lazy and fell asleep on the big bed!  Even the cat curled up next to your feet!  Daddy moved you into the bassinet after a while though.  

Big day for a big man!  Sleep tight!

I love you very much!
