check up

Two posts in three days! I might be getting the hang of this. :) I'm not sure how long I'll be able to keep this up, so enjoy it while it lasts.

Luke had his two week well-baby check up yesterday. He's one healthy little man. He's already gained nearly 2 pounds since his last doctor's appointment! Currently he's weighing in at 9lbs 3 oz (still not as big as his mom was when she was born, if you can believe that!) and he's grown an entire inch since his birth- now 22 1/4 inches long. Luke is still in the 90th percentile for height and now is in the 50th percentile for weight.

I took some videos of Luke yesterday with the intent of posting them on the blog. This will be our video debut, if I can get it to work. Our computer has been ultra slow and irritating lately so we'll see if this works.

Luke has been keeping us very entertained with all of his facial expressions. He seems to smile quite a bit...its probably just gas, we know, but we like to think he's smiling in response to us.

This second video is of Matt with Luke - Matt's been 'training' Luke in all the athletic movements that he'll need when he gets older. Matt is hoping that Luke will be a lefty. He believes that Luke will then have an advantage in any sport he chooses to play.

(We had American Idol on t.v. while this video was being taped and didn't realize how loud it actually was... so please excuse the background music. )
