holy double digits batman!

Yup... Sara has hit the big time... and has had a couple of big days this week.  Today she saw the doc for a 3 week appointment and made it to 10 lb 1 oz!... her measurements put her at the 75th percentile across the board.... pretty darn good if you ask me.  She also had most of her cord fall off this evening, yet another milestone... and she attended her very first museum today.  We went to the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage to see pieces of one of the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Temple Scroll actually.  It was a pretty interesting historical exhibit about that era and the scroll was pretty neat too.... Sara of course slept through most of it.

Grandma and Grandpa H. are here and enjoying spending as much time with her as possible.... Grandpa has been singing Irish drinking songs to her when she is fussy.. I guess he has changed a few of the words, but it is fun nonetheless.  As usual, she still isn't on much of a schedule... she slept a lot today, and didn't eat that much, and is cluster feeding this evening... it seems she likes to go in a cycle that is slowly rotating through the clock... so we will be getting used to something after a day or two, then it will switch to something else for a day or two, and etc, etc.... more cute pics have accumulated, but not been downloaded recently... so more pics in a future post.

Tell Sara to chow down because Tim just got back from his 2 week appointment and is at 9 lb 14 oz (up almost a full pound from last week - but down an ounce after peeing all over the scale - scary). Granted, he had a head start on the poundage. As Ben says, he is "eating for England." :)

Thanks for the comments on my blog! I can't wait to meet Sara, though I'm not sure when that'll be. We'll figure something out! Best wishes and I'll try calling you guys at some point while I'm in Duluth (Claire & I are heading up to the BWCA and just to hang out in Duluth until we move on July 15th).
