Stretch

This is what happens every time Tyler wakes up. We thought it was so cute and wanted to share it with you.

Relaxing family weekend

We sat in our bumbo seat for the first time. We can't really hold our head up by ourselves yet, we just wanted to try it out.
We had a great weekend just relaxing at home and putting up our Christmas decorations. More pictures of that to come. Saturday we finished remodeling the basement bathroom. It is now a pretty red color and of course we forgot to take before pictures. Basically we painted, put up new trim and installed a new six panel door so now it matches the rest of the house. We really like how it turned out...especially considering we picked out the paint color in all of 2 minutes.

Since the weather was so nice on Saturday, Jeremy got on the roof and put up his new LED Christmas lights we bought at the end of last season. We haven't actually turned them on at night yet...maybe after Thanksgiving. We also put up the Christmas tree and I'm still working on the rest of the decorations around the house. Tyler loves the tree and just stares at it while sitting in his bouncer. We can't wait to celebrate this holiday season with him.

We also had the first of many photo shoots - it takes alot of shots to get a good picture of a baby. We had a couple that turned out well, hope you enjoy.

First bottle!

We getting big enough to play with our activity gym and follow the toys with our eyes.
We took our first bottle on Saturday without any problems at all!

3 weeks!

We are growing and trying to get pictures of everything. Here are some recent ones.

Almost back to my birth weight

Well, I went to the pediatrician yesterday and I've gained a couple ounces and now I weight 8lb and 4 oz - almost back to my birth weight. Doc says I'm gaining good weight and should be back to my birth weight of 8lb 11 oz by Sunday.

I'm eating about every 3 hours for about an hour each time, though I get really sleepy towards the end and mommy has to keep me awake so I eat more. I love play time with daddy, especially when we both lay on our tummies and just look at each other. I've been peeing through my diapers and some days I go through 3 outfit changes just to keep dry clothes on. My umbilical cord is going to fall off any day now and I'm excited to have my first bath at home and get my hair washed again.

Sometimes I toot and make mommy laugh while she's feeding me just so I can have a milk shake. :) Hope you enjoy these new pictures mommy took of me.
