I promise we aren't bad parents.

It has recently dawned on us that when we take Liam out in public people think we are bad parents for taking our brand new baby out so soon.

However, they just assume that, since he is little, he is brand new. Someone asked me today, "how many days old is that baby," she was quite shocked with my answer of, "about 50."

Other people's reactions are so funny to us because we think Liam is so big and chubby since he started out so small. He looks like a newborn now that he is almost two months old! I know he will catch up soon, he has already grown so much!

(I should mention that we aren't taking him out a lot or to places with large crowds. And, he did not go anywhere except to the doctor's office until he was four weeks old.)

about 50...thats a great response. its funny once you have a baby, or get pregnant, people feel like they can say whatever they want. people are crazy. but i am sure you are great parents and youre right. liam will grow and be just fine! he is adorable by the way.

we always took parker out everywhere, even when he was 3 days old he went to james' basketball game in a germ filled junior high gym. i think it helps build their immunities and it helps you keep your sanity and revel in the sweet comments (well most of them sweet :)). yay for liam growing!!
