Biggest Gainer!

Winston had his big weigh in this morning and we are pleased to announce he has surpassed his birth weight, weighing in at a hefty 6 lbs, 2 oz. Dr. Forster is pleased and we don't have to go back for 2 weeks. Here's a photo of mom and Winston whooping it up after the weigh in. If we continue this trend, he should be 8 lbs by mid-August.

Here are a few photos from his first appointment, on June 30th (day after his release from the hospital).

Minor milestone to report: Winston had his first "real" bath on July 9 and he took to the water like a fish! No crying for Grandma Mary, in fact he seemed completely content. This child is definitely the progeny of David Wanless - totally at ease in the water.
Here's a cute picture of Tutu giving Winston his first sponge bath back on July 2nd. Not so pleased at this point in time - he definitely prefers submersion. Isn't this the cutest little bathtub? Thank you Loretta's - appreciated almost as much as the tonic and vodka packet given to mommy!!
Just about the only person who is totally unfazed by the weight issue is the little man himself, Winston Wanless. Here he is resting in his crib, at peace with the world. The kid uses his arms like an octopus when he is awake (believe me, I have to contend with his flailing at every feeding, definitely feels like more than 2 arms involved when he is battling me), so it is a beautiful sight to see him in repose.

Finally, a timeless image to share - Grandma and her adoring grandson catching a snooze.
