October 9th








Hunter is 3 weeks old TODAY! Hard to believe...
I have attached some pix for your viewing pleasure ;)

Two of the attached pix are of Hunter in his cool Redskins onesie (definitely meets with Dad's approval)... doesn't the one picture look like he's flexing his muscles??? ;)
Then there's another picture of Hunter in his 1st REAL CLOTHES OUTFIT... doesn't he look like a Big Boy?!
Finally, Hunter got his first real tub bath last week! So cute, little, squirmy and FUN! Daddy's hands look HUGE next to Hunter, even if he weighs 9 lbs 14.4 oz now!

That leads me to my next point...I had a lactation consult today where Hunter was weighed before a feeding and afterwards to make sure he was getting enough milk... and, man oh man, is he ever!?! Hunter has put on A WHOLE POUND since his last week's well baby visit. (I guess they normally only gain 1/2 lb a week.) Anyhow, they measure the baby after I feed him as well and in only 15 min he took in an amazing 138 grams of milk. Hunter doesn't mess around when it comes to his food, I guess!

As for Momma and Poppa, we're fine... Loving Hunter but we're NOT loving the sleepless nights...!!

Well, take care and hope all is well in your world.
XOXOX Krista, Charlie, and Hunter

You can really tell who the Daddy is!! Hunter is growing so fast he might even catch up to Aidan and Sean.
Anxious to see him at Christmas time.

At the rate Hunter is growing, he's going to pass "petite, little" Kara in no time! Kara was at the doctor last night and she now weighs 10 lbs and 1 ounce. She will be 13 weeks old this Friday, October 12th--or if you go by months, she'll be 3 months on Saturday, October 13th. Hunter definitely takes after his "big" daddy, Charlie! :-) We are looking forward to seeing him (and you guys too) again real soon!

Love,
Kathy, Tim, Samantha and Kara
