Twins for the day

I admit that this is a bit dorky, but Bennett and I decided to dress the same the other day.  It happened completely by accident, I swear....although I was the one that dressed B right after picking out my own shirt.  Maybe we have been spending too much time together lately :)  

Cousins!

Bennett got to meet a few of his cousins for the first time recently.  Sarah, Jay, Cael and Wren were in town and stopped over for a visit.  We did our best to get a first picture of the cousins all together, but it was pretty hard to get everyone to look at the camera.  Here are a few of the best shots from their visit:

One Month Old

Bennett is celebrating his one month birthday today!  Thanks to his Aunt Amy, we have some cool month stickers to take pictures with so that we can see how much he has grown each month.  Here are the month 0 pictures taken soon after we got home from the hospital:

We took the pictures with an elephant that our friend Jessica made for Bennett to get some perspective of how much he is growing.  Here are the month 1 pictures from today:

Gaining lbs

Here is a look at Bennett's most recent weight stats:

5/18/11 - Birth  6lbs, 6 oz and 20.5 inches long
5/20/11 - Leaving the hospital: 5lbs, 14 oz and 20.5 inches long
5/23/11 - First pediatrician visit: 6lbs 5.8 oz
5/31/11 - Second pediatrician visit: 7 lbs 5oz and 21 inches long

So now we don't have to go back to the doctor's office until July 18th for his 2 month check up which seems so far away.  I can't wait to see how much he has grown by then - there is already a double chin forming so he is definitely getting bigger every day!
