These are our friends
Derek and Michelle. I realize that I mention them quite a bit, but I've never had any pictures of them. So last night when Joe and I went over to visit them I took my camera to finally get a shot of two of our favorite people.
Generally when we see them Michelle spends the whole night holding the baby since Derek doesn't usually hold anything under the age of 2. However, Derek was interested to know
how much Avery weighs at this point and I told him we did not have a scale. He ran to his bathroom and came back with one so that we could see how much bigger she really had gotten. When Michelle asked him if he was going to do the honors he said "sure". What? Okay. I HAD to get a
picture of this since I was not sure that he would be holding her again for the next 2 years. Once Derek's weight was measured, we gave him Avery to see what the increase was. Now, if Derek's scale is to be believed,
Avery weighs 7 and 1/2 lbs! She's now average newborn size! Still little, like we said, but not teeny anymore! And the fact that she has gained nearly three pounds of weight in her first 5 weeks is awesome! Hooray for Derek and Michelle and their scale!

What are you feedin' that kid?!! I just finished posting on Angela's blog how your baby would still be small but if she keeps gaining, at this rate, she'll be a giant!
I told you... you'll have a little fatty soon enough.
I thought for a second that Derek and Michelle had a baby as well. I was a little jealous that you guys would have babies together. maybe we will have one when your second is here. Joe I want to talk to you about NAU email me and tell me about how you liked it.
