Growing baby boy

From Instagram: 17lbs 6ozs! I’d say we’re back on the growth curve – woohoo! ❤️

Five weeks after he stopped gaining weight altogether, little man has put on almost a pound-and-a-half, and I’ve never smiled so big as I did while double- and triple- checking his weight on our brand new digital scale.

The last month has also brought a slew of milestones: crawling, pulling up, two tiny bottom teeth and sleeping through the night once again.

Now that we’ve got his weight gain back on track, we’ll be testing solids to see if his body is ready to handle them at 9 months old. But knowing he’s growing is good enough for me!

Here are some of my favorite posts from this week. As always, check out what I’m reading and what I’m pinning to see the other posts that make me stop and think (or, you know, drool…). You’ll find new posts all week long!
