Other than having a new baby boy to enjoy, a lot of time at home lets you appreciate things you may have never noticed. It's amazing how much wildlife we have in our backyard - so many beautiful animals that are probably there all of the time but we're often too busy to take a moment to look out the window. We thought we had just finches in our backyard - but it looks like we have much more than that. We believe we have a Red Shouldered Hawk that frequents our Pecan Tree; plus, since we've cleared out the woods - we get to see deer loitering behind our shed. We've seen as many as 6 at one time.
However, at the same time - spending a lot of time at home makes you realize the faults in your house. Next to our dishwasher, our kitchen sink was the worst. The fact that it was 6 inches deep and couldn't fit a large pot made me scream. So, we decided to upgrade. We installed a gourmet bathtub with a removable shower head for Jack; thanks to his Pop for helping us (Bryan) install it :)
Next on the list - a dishwasher that only needs one run to get the dishes clean...
Let us not forget that Jack is 2 weeks old today. He's brought such joy to our lives - we can hardly stand it. He changes a little bit everyday. So far, he's next to perfect. Knock on wood - 'colicky' isn't in his vocabulary. He eats and sleeps well. He's a little more alert than last week and he makes the most funny faces. Tomorrow, we go in for his 2 week appointment. Any guesses as to how big he'll be?

Since Jack and Matthew weighed the same at birth and sound similar in habits I will venture 8 lbs, 4 oz for the two week check up. :) Love your new sink!
