But, I'm Still Hungy Mommy!

Carter has had a healthy appettite since birth, but he has raised the bar over the last couple of days. The six 4-oz. bottles you see (one hidden behind the Boppy(R)) show how much he ate during the last twelve hours. We have to remind him that he really isn't hungry when he starts searching for food half an hour after eating. We were starting to think we had a completely adorable version of Agustus Gloop on our hands, but after checking with his doctor, we found out that he is just eating at the high end of the normal range for newborns. We do love the chubby cheeks that he has started to take on as a side effect!

Shane forgot to add that when we picked up our prints at the local pharmacy, the guy who printed our pictures asked if we were trying to make out child look like an alcoholic in this picture... we were confused at first but finally figured out he was asking about this picture. Shane said, "no, not at all, we just wanted to show how much he eats." The guy just laughed all goofy and thought it was so funny. hmmm...weird. so, no, we were not trying to make Carter look like an alcoholic! (in case you were wondering)

Hey Megan and Shane,

You know Michael and his sense of humor. He said to remember that what goes in must come out. Not only lots of formula, but lots of diapers too?

Love you both!!!
