The Pacifier

Posted byAlison Allen

My friend Sarah inspired this post recently when I sent a picture of Ben sucking on his pacifier – she asked if it was a new one, to which I replied that it was the same one he had in the hospital. I pulled up some photos of him sucking on the same pacifier in his first days of life and it’s astounding how much he has grown since then.

It’s amazing to us how much he has grown – he’s more than triple what he weighed at birth and he is finally on the “normal” baby charts for his size. He sure is thriving!
