Growing Up Too Fast

I went and saw Catie, Dave, and their sweet little boy today at the hospital. Baby Bennett is such a cute lite guy, he looks so much like Catie and has a head full of dark black hair! Bennett was 6 pounds 12 ounces at birth and I would have sworn he was the smallest little thing I have ever held. Man, how quick we forgot how little our babies really really. It is amazing to me, I know that Nate is growing and changing very rapidly, I can see it from week to week, but it thinking about how small he really was is insane. Nate was 6 pounds 5 ounces at birth, so Bennett has a few ounces on Nate! It is so hard for me to believe that my little boy is already 3 months old (12 weeks on Sunday)! I cannot believe how much he has grown and changed (then again, Dan and I have grown and changed in a different way since Nate was born)! I look back at the pictures of Nate the day he was born and it is so hard for me to imagine him like that. I mean, I know the pictures are of Nate, but they almost do not look like him to me. Nate is just about ready to start wearing his 3-6 month old clothes now! Not so much because he is too big for them, but because he is too long for them! Nate has gained weight very well over the past couple of months and has nearly doubled his birth weight already! YEAH FOR NATE!!! Oh, also, Nate has been sleeping for a solid 6 hours straight now at night :D Now if I could just fall asleep when he does, that would mean that I could get more than 3 hours of sleep in a row. Wish me luck!







<--- Nate's first picture... literally just the moment he landed on my chest... I was so happy and overwhelmed with love that I was BAWLING!












<--- Nate all cleaned up and swaddled. Just a few hours old!














<--- Mama's little cuddle buddy now :D Oh how he has grown up! Look at that cute little smile of his! He makes me so happy every time he smiles!
