I really don't have much of anything to talk about, but I wanted to post Corbin's 2 week stats for my record :) He had his check up today and last week the dr. said he needed to be back up to his birth weight by this week... well the little guy def. surpassed that goal! He weighed 6lbs 9oz! He had gained a whole lb. since last week! I knew his little cheeks were filling out, but I didn't think he had gained a whole lb! He is finally on the charts and is in the 5th percentile for weight (still scrawny, but we are so glad he is doing well!). He had grown another 1/2 inch since last week and is now 21 inches long, which he is def. not behind on, he is in the 75th percentile of length! He has a tiny little head that is less than 5th percentile, but that's ok, momma has a little head too :) hehe!
It was my first time taking him out all by myself. I have to say I was a little nervous about him being in the back seat all by himself (B is at pre-school today). We both did fine though! I'm so short carrying the big awkward carrier is... well.... akward! lol. We made it though and now I think I'm ready to get out and about! I LOVE LOVE LOVE being home all the time, but sometimes a girl just needs to get out of the house! My mom took B to school for me both mornings this week and Ryan has been picking him up, but next week I think I will feel up to taking B myself in the mornings. I am recovering great from my c/s. I can def. feel it when I overdo it, but my incision looks great and I am happy to say I wore my regular jeans today! yay!! I have pretty much been pregnant and in "fat clothes" for 2 years, so this is very very exciting for me! :) A healthy baby and skinny jeans all in one day (oh yah and girl scout cookies too!), what more could a girl ask for?! :)

So glad C is doing well! I can't wait to get back into my regular jeans!
So Happy he is doing well! He is so cute! I bet Brycen is loving be a big brother!
I have a suggestion, I had a "Hot Sling" and I LOVED it! Those carriers are so big and bulky it is hard to get around with them! It is great for going to the Dr. office and going to the grocery store and Walmart or even just at home. If B goes with you to the store, you have the carseat, and a child in the cart, you have no room for you "stuff". I got mine on Ebay. They run big, so I suggest if you are on the border between sizes, go smaller! You want it to fit snug so you dont feel like the baby is falling out. You can even use them when they are Toddlers! Plus they have really cute patterns :)
Oh my Chels, you are already in your jeans from before you were pregnant. How do you do it? I am not and it's been what almost 2 years!! LOL
Good doctor's reports are the best! Glad he is doing so well! And I bet you are looking like your old self already!! Lucky you!!:)
I agree with Shawna. . I have a hotsling and a peanut shell pouch. They are pretty much the same thing just different brands. . I got mine on walmart.com or you can get them on target.com. SOOO much easier then carrying around those honkin big car seats!
WOW!!!! 2 wks & in regular jeans...that's great!! I know what you mean about being pregnant for 2 yrs & just wanting to get your body back...it felt great to wear regular jeans & shirts again...however there is a warning...Ryan probably won't leave ya alone...if you know what I mean...that's how Jeremy's been...lol!!!! Glad C is doing good too!!!!
Awww... that is a fast growth spurt! That's awesome!
Just to let you know, the sling I made is patterned from the Hot Sling, the only difference between the two is that mine is reversible ;). I also made it pretty small for you, and left some extra fabric in it so that I can lengthen it when C gets bigger :). So you will have your very own whenever you're in town next! Shawna is right though, baby wearing is so much easier than "the bucket", as my friend likes to call it :).
Awesome. It doesn't surprise me that you're all skinny again. Im Still working on it and Leah is 10 mo old. (I am wearing my jeans of course and did soon after- but I was too big before!!)
Sweet! And all is well deserved. Thinking of you today.
Sounds like a very good day! :o)
Sounds like a good day! It is great to be back in regular clothes, isn't it!? Oooh- I loved my Hot Sling too!
