Outside of the fact that Dr. Poopsie was the baby that showed up when we visited great grandma, the trip was pretty awesome. Grandma had told everyone about baby Ben and so when we came through the door, they were all waiting.

We had a nice lunch together and then spent the afternoon catching up. The in-laws met us later in the day and caught their first glimpse of the little guy. Ben was pretty fussy throughout, and required a few 'time outs' to calm down. Ultimately he did chill long enough to hang out and capture a few photos.

It was really nice to see everyone - how amazing is it that Ben has a great grandma? She turned 91 on March 12 and is still sharp as ever. A few more family visits coming up and we're looking forward to it.

Allow me to introduce you to Dr. Poopsie...Ben's alter (fussy) ego.

Dr. Poopsie is our new name for the little guy when he goes bonkers crying for no reason. Somehow it makes the chaos a bit more tolerable. You can't get mad at Dr. Poopsie.

We had our one month peds appointment on Monday and he continues to grow. He is 10.2 lbs which means he is putting on weight faster now than he was a couple weeks ago (a great assurance that BF is working!) and he is 22.25 inches long. The doc was happy with his progress and gave us a clean bill of health. He also answered all my neurotic questions, which surprisingly I was able to hold until the appointment (rather than calling daily).

I love the rolls he is developing, his third chin and chubby lamb chop legs. We are literally watching him grow before our eyes, it's awesome.

Even when he is Dr. Poopsie.
