August 12, 2008: 7 days old

We went to the pediatrician today. Silas weighed 7 pounds 10 ounces and was 20.5 inches long. The weight was really good news because he surpassed his birth weight and it's only been a week.


Eric made a great dinner for us on the grill, and he also made some swiss chard (which I actually ate). Go to Eric's blog to see how he made it Silas slept through the whole meal.











Eric is great at pushing Guthrie's limits. Here he is helping Guthrie get used to Silas.
