Little Piggy

According to the scale we have in our home, our Toku bug is already about 11 POUNDS! Holy guacamole! He's only a few days over 5 weeks old! My back has been starting to ache from carrying and rocking him. My Grandma asked me if he's been drinking cream! Maybe it's all the chocolate/ice cream/cookies/cakes that I've been consuming with gusto. Ever since Grant was born, I can't get enough sweets! In fact, I can't get enough FOOD! It seems like I'm ALWAYS hungry!

We love our chunky dude. He is the best! Here's a pic of him striking a very handsome pose:

Last night Jeff and I looked over at him in his bouncer, and his arms were outstretched like this! He kept them there for a few minutes after we took this picture, and we wondered how long they were like this before we took it! Perhaps he was dreaming of flying?

And just for fun, a short video:

I'm wasn't positive as to how Jeff came up with the term "merman" for this dance. He told me later that Grant's diaper flaps reminded him of mermaid fins... Haha!
