Week Two - A Walk, Weight-Check and Casting Our Vote

I cannot believe another week has passed since the birth of Robert Franklin. We have spent the past week being quite hermit-like and I must say, it has been fantastic.

The only time we left the house this weekend was for our first family (dogs included) walk around the neighborhood and I must say, it was really nice to get out in the fresh fall air, even if he did sleep the whole time...
 
We had a weight check on Monday afternoon. RF has surpassed his birth weight and is now up to 9lbs, 13oz. He did wonderfully at the appointment, sleeping through the whole thing as you can see.
 

Yesterday our one reason for leaving the house was to go vote - and, again, he slept through it, but involving him in such an important part of the democratic process is something we feel strongly about.

Even though he is only 14 days old, we have certainly seen him grow and change over these two weeks and we are absolutely loving every minute with him.
