Eirik went to his first doctor's appointment this week. He is now 13 lbs 7 oz. He has almost doubled his wieght! this usually doesn't happen until babies are 6 months old. He is in the 90th percentile for his weight and 80th for his height. He's now 24" tall so he has grown almost 5 inches in 2 months. (No Wonder he is eating so much!!)
He is doing some other great tricks like standing by holding onto just my fingers (the books say this usually doesn't happen untill 3-4 months and sitting nearly by himself. He is so much fun!

Paul wore this little outfit when he was a baby. We call this photo retro boy.

Eirik loves this front pack made by Grandma Law more than 25 years ago. We love to take walks to watch the spring in MO unfold.

Big Yawn!

His outfit is a little big :)

Here's Eirik at 5 days old!

We felt that we needed to add this pic. It shows his squishy face and his beautiful mouth.

The little man was born with tons of blonde hair and dark blue eyes. Already he is breastfeeding and Melody is recovering well.

This is a picture of Eirik right before he was discharged. Isn't he adorable?
