Mama Mia 24-7

Will left for Japan early Monday morning and it is now Tuesday evening and all is going well even with a few hiccups along the way. Not that mama bear is not always on-call 24-7 for the next 18, uh 25, uh 50 years of Finn's life, but it is definitely tougher with papa bear not here to take over when I need a mini-break.

Today we took a nice long stroll downtown and stopped off at the clinic where I delivered just over a month ago! The crowds went wild when the saw Mr Finn and as we were all guessing how much he weighs now we went over to the scales and Finn is now 5.4 kg or just under 12 pounds! Yes, just under 12 lbs. Everyone congratulated me since he has only had breast milk. Got Milk? I guess I do! No wonder my arms are starting to look like Madonna's - this kid gives me a good workout every time I pick him up.

Only about 2 more weeks until Grandma and Grandpa Lebel arrive in Shanghai to meet the little one. They are very excited as are we to show him off....sorry he won't be quite as little as he was just a few short weeks ago, but I don't think they will care once they get their hands on him!
