11 Weeks

Dane is 11 weeks old and had his 2 month check-up today (although he is 2 months and 17 days). The doctor said he looks really good and while he is small, his rate of growth is right on track. Here are his stats:

height: 22 1/2 inches (13th percentile)
weight: 10 lbs (5th percentile)
head: 14.85 inches (3rd percentile) we think the nurse got a weird angle on the head measurement.

And of course he got some immunizations which didn't make him very happy at all - poor little guy. We lent our camera out so there are no pictures with this post, but we'll put some up as soon as we can.

Family Fun for the Fourth

How's the for alliteration?

Emily's family had a reunion in Wisconsin over the 4th of July weekend. It was tons-o-fun and so good to see everyone. It's a miracle that so many were able to make it.

We started off the trip with Dane's first airplane ride to Milwaukee, WI via Las Vegas. He did amazingly well during the flights.
When we got to Milwaukee we picked up the rental car and started on the 4 hour drive to Pembine where the "cabin" is located. We were exhuasted when we got there, but it was worth the fun that awaited.

There was four-wheeling.

Plenty of chill time to catch up with each other.
Games of all sorts - one of the most popular was pass-the-baby.

A bunch of the gang went on a hike to the river.

Dane discovered the joy of reading on our trip (isn't this adorable?).

He's even being patriotic and sporting the red, white & blue.

On the last day of our trip Dane turned 2 months old.

It was a wonderful trip - we can't wait until the next reunion.

See you all in 2012!
