So Miles is almost 6 weeks now and is growing soo fast. It made me sad to realize the other day that his newborn clothes don't fit anymore. He is in the 95 percentile for his height and weighs 11 lbs now! We have been having so much fun with him and love how he is starting to smile and interact with us more! I'm still not getting a whole lot of sleep but I am pushing through remembering that those sweet moments that I get with him in the night are going to be gone so fast. I just really want to treasure every sec. that I get to still snuggle and hold him. 

Thanks so much to all our friends and families that have helped us out, from meals- to gift cards we have felt so blessed to have such great friends and family! My mom came and stayed with us for a while and helped out so much with meals and  encouraged me and supported me through a rough start of nursing, my sisters came and cleaned our house while we were in the hospital and stocked our fridge with tons of yummy food! Adams parents have brought us numerous meals and Grandma Cindi has stayed up in the night with Miles quite a few times to allow me to get some sleep. Our house church has been so encouraging and brought tons of meals to us. We are so thankful for you all and don't know what we would do with out you! Thanks to everyone who has sent gifts, meals, support, words of encouragement and prayers! We love you.

Here are a few recent pictures...

He is amazing!!! You are such naturally wonderful parents! I'm so proud of you all! These are great pictures, but don't even come close to showing just exactly how adorable he is!

I love your incredible little family!
