Incongruent

How is it that all of your teeny tiny socks have made it through the laundry in pairs, while I've been looking for one hot pink slouch sock since the mid-eighties? If you're so small, why are all of your accessories so big (car seat, baby swing, bouncy chair)? If two ounces of milk go in your mouth, how does twice that amount come out your little toosh?

Yesterday we had your two-week check-up. Yet another opportunity for a doctor to describe you as "perfect." You've grown a full inch and gained 12 ounces since your birth. I think we're on our last pack of newborn diapers (unless the plumber diaper look becomes chic in the next few days) and that kind of saddens me. I'm looking forward to watching you grow up, but I'm not ready for size one diapers. You also rolled over for your dad last night.

Now that you're a little bigger, we've noticed some features we can attribute to each of us. It seems you get your cute ears, beautiful eyes and face shape from your dad. Your mouth and chin are from your mom. We think your feathery hair must come from Pancho, but we're not sure how.
