weighing in

*5 weeks*

well, took our little bubble blower in to get him all checked out and for certain, he is gaining weight!  he's weighing in at a whopping 13.8 pounds, healthy as can be!!*

 *i love this photo, arms up and totally asleep, wearing the sweater that auntie carrie made for solomon when he was this age.  just fits denali a little more snugly!*

*and our little potato harvesters have put on their healthy weight too- solomon leading the charge at just under 35 pounds, and sophia just over 32 pounds.  must be a collection of all those fresh veggies from the garden and lots of outdoor play!!!*

day 2

 *Ray has been harvesting up a storm!  Our white concord grapes are being made into sweet wine... and Sol and Soph were able to take part in the process!!*

 *Steady weight gain... happy baby!*

*We went on a walk to scout for deer out on a friend's property.  It felt SO good to get out in the Autumn weather and explore with our family!!*

*Cuddle time with Grampa Reichner*

*The dark eyes and hair is so different from the twins.  We find ourselves staring at him and marveling at how God can create such different looks in our own kids*
