Yesterday our sweet little John turned two weeks old. What a busy day we had! First we took John to the doctor to get a check up - and our little boy had gained some serious weight! At his one week check up he weighed 6 pounds 12 ounces - this time he weighed 8 pounds 2 ounces! Over a pound gained in one week! After the doctor's office, John got to make his first trip to Wal-Mart - a very important milestone... :)
Next I took him to Oliver with me for lunch and the entire staff just oohed and ahhed over him. I was told he had a perfectly shaped round head and was just a beautiful baby. My fifth hour loved seeing him!
After that we had family pictures. Those turned out great and I've only seen 12 of them so far! For our advent last night we loaded up in the car and drove around a couple of different neighborhoods looking at Christmas lights. After we were done looking at the houses, we went to Braum's and got ice cream.
The advent for today included going to the Philbrook Festival of Trees. They had trees made out of all kinds of things as well as a display of gingerbread houses. We were also going to go to the Christmas parade, but it was so cold outside that we opted to come home and let Connor watch Cars 2 instead.
Tomorrow baby John gets dedicated, so for dessert tonight I baked some Santa cupcakes. I will take some with us tomorrow to eat after lunch. Connor wants to make his own gingerbread house, so if another of our outdoor adventures gets too cold we may do that instead.
