Week Three...

Some highlights of week three...

He lost his cord...he is now a big baby!

(the raisin looking thing on his hip is the cord)

First real bath (since he lost his cord).

I think I might like this!

No. No I don't like this at all!

Eating is hard work!

Chillin' in the the bouncy seat.

Can I get an Amen?

That chin...

So we still haven't discovered where the chin came from...but at least it has a purpose! You can store your milk in it and save it for later when you need a snack!

By the way...we went to the doctor yesterday and he has gained back up to 7 lbs 9oz (he lost down to 6 lbs 9 oz) so things are going well. He is also 1/4" longer.

He is having a growth spurt right now so the past few days have been pretty hectic and mostly filled with him crying so I don't really have any other cute pics for now! But I am sure there are more to come!

Week One...

I can't believe that it has already been a week. But then again I have no idea what day it is because all time seems to run together...so I guess that may be why. Here are some of the events of the little guy's first week...

Coming home...

Meeting Chia...

Mimi (the great-grandmother)...



The Cousins (on my side)...

The Events...

I was sent straight over to Labor & Delivery after my regular appointment. It made me a little nervous!

Didn't have much pain for most of the labor.R helping me breathe. At least he keeps things light!

Fresh out of the oven.

Waiting for his first bath.
...and the adventure begins...

The Room

We are still waiting...and should know more on Tuesday (if not sooner). In the meantime I think I have finally finished his room. So here you go...

The quilt was made by my mom and Linda. It is really cute!! And I have a feeling I will be spending a lot of time in that chair - that is why we went with the comfy leather.

This is the little man dresser from earlier, just with the mirror attached. Notice the super cute lamp that we found at Target! Man I love Target!


This, of course, is his bed. I made the letters for his name, but I couldn't get them to show up very well!
