8lbs 1oz, 22"

How he's grown.  I look at these photos and I can remember the time we spent in the hospital like it was yesterday.  He was so tiny!  Now he's such a big boy playing and just absorbing the world around him.  I am so in awe of him!  I see tiny babies now and I can't believe, by looking at him, that he was ever that tiny yet I can remember that his little head fit in my hand when I held him the first time.
