BOO! We got this little outfit in the mail yesterday from Aunt Keri. THANK YOU! She was worried it wouldn't fit him, but it does - at least for now..... We are very excited for Aunt Keri and her family to come see us this weekend! 
Zach and his big brother - Ben had just woken up (as if that isn't obvious, hahaha)Since Baby Zach is a fourth child, I feel a little bit guilty that I am not very good at the whole "this is how big he is this week, baby book" thing - so figured I would update on here. :)
Zach is 2 1/2 wks in these pictures. As of Tuesday, he weighed 9 lbs 7 oz. The doctor has been shocked how fast he is growing the last couple times I have taken him in. Leaving the hospital on a Wednesday at 8 lbs even, the following Monday he was already 8 lbs 15 oz. While for adults, this would not seem much, for these little ones, that is actually a pretty big growth spurt. Then 8 days later had gained 8 more ounces.
He is the sweetest little baby. I have been very pleasantly surprised at how gentle Ben is with him. Almost to the point of me needing to remind him that we don't have to be kissing a baby every single second he is awake. He is on a pretty good 2-3 hr eating schedule with lots of sleeping in between. I have decided having a calm baby is my reward for having a 4th baby. Every mom with 4 kids deserves an easy baby. He does seem to want to eat and be awake more more at night than during the day, but I am going to work on reversing that to be able to get some more sleep myself.
We are all so thankful for this little one that has been able to join our family.

He is so cute!! I can't wait to hold him and kiss him lots tomorrow. We are all so excited to come and visit!
You are a lucky girl indeed. Our 4th was our absolute hardest! Cried for almost two months straight! We were so exhausted. I'm so glad she grew out of that!
He is so cute! I am glad he is such a good baby for you. I'm sure you have your hands full with 4 kids! You deserve it!
He's still heavier than Logan... by 2 ounces. Very cute!

I was searching the web to see what was the best vinyl cutter to buy. I'm going to go into a small home based business with my twin sister. The search brought me to your blog. I see your sisters are also going into the wall lettering business. I was wondering if you could tell me how your sister's like their new machine. Does it do everything they wanted it to? I seen this cutter on ebay for $275.00. I thought the price was great but it didn't say if it came with any software or not. I would really appreciate any information you could give me. Thanks. My email is twin6045@yahoo.com
By-the-way... I think we have the same sheets.
Dang girl..what you feeding him? haha like I should talk;)...We missed Ben! Let's play this week...and not have any trips to the Doctor HAHAH
