davis weighed 11 pounds 8 oz @ 3 months
berkley was 11 pounds 12.5 oz
in the early weeks of motherhood i thought women with more than one child were either half insane or suffered from mommy amnesia. several of my friends told me that you just forget. "how could you forget!?" i wondered. it all seemed so unforgettable. the long nights...hoping for dawn to break so that wakefulness felt normal again, inconsolable tears that flowed like rain, endless hours of feeding little tummies the size of a golf balls. there was no way i would forget. after our middle of the night feeding this week i held onto davis a little longer...sleeping soundly in my arms, i thanked God for the quiet moments in the night and the precious lives that He has given us charge over. and i thought to myself, "i am starting to forget".
no question about it, the joy that berkley and davis add to our family is far greater than i could have predicted in those "unforgettable" first months of parenthood. thank you Jesus.
They look so BIG! I have the same thoughts...already forgetting what the first weeks were like!
