CANDY & CEREAL – AUGUST 11, 2009

On August 2nd we celebrated our SIXTH wedding anniversary!  Those years have really gone by fast.  We snuck away for a cup of coffee then lunch at the California Pizza Kitchen.  The traditional anniversary gift is candy so I bought Josh (and me!) M&Ms that say “6 years already!” on one side and “Marie & Josh” on the other.  We are still enjoying them.

Damon had his first rice cereal last Wednesday.  He just seemed HUNGRY even after eating so we started it a little before Branson did.  He wasn’t sure about it at first and of course it wasn’t coming fast enough for our good eater.  He gets rice cereal twice a day and is adjusting to it pretty well.

We had Damon’s four month check-up today.  Do you wanna guess his weight???  He is now a whopping 17 lbs. 12 oz (95th percentile), 25-1/2 inches tall (70th percentile), and 42″ head circumference (50th percentile).  Damon is wearing size 6-9 months in clothes – Branson wore these when he was about nine months old.  He is now sleeping about 10-12 hours at night and smiles all the time.  He loves to talk to everyone, especially the ladies.  He looks like a real life Cabbage Patch doll just like mommy did as a baby.
