Easter and other fun things

Noah is now over 2 weeks old already! I know in the grand scheme of things 2 weeks isn't very long, but it's hard to believe he's been with us that long already! We had his 2 week check up at the pediatrician on Friday. He weighed 9lbs 4.5oz and was 22.5 inches long...that means he's in the 75th percentile for weight and 95th percentile for height. Can't remember how big his head was, but it was in the 50th percentile. He's still a big boy...and growing so fast!! Mike and I commented this morning on how he seems so much bigger to us in just the span of a few days. The other great thing that happened at our visit with the pedi is that Noah very loudly and obviously loaded his diaper (only the way newborns can do) over the span of several minutes while we were talking with our doctor, it even leaked a little on Mom...it was pretty funny and I think it made Dad proud!
We had some fun this week too. Took Noah for his first stroller ride (a walk around the block that was a very welcome outing for Mom) and then later in the weekend we met Uncle Brian (Mike's brother) and Aunt Dayna and cousins Isaac, Lydia, and Jared at Central Market for dinner. We sat outside on the patio and Noah slept in his stroller for the entire time we were there! But again, Mom and Dad welcomed the fresh air and visit with family outside of the house.
We celebrated our first Easter as a family on Sunday. We did decide to take Noah to church, but snuck in late, left early, and avoided sitting with the main part of the congregation. Even though we missed parts of the service it was still great to be there! Noah even got his first Easter basket...not the he knew the difference, but Mom had fun picking out a few little things for him!
