2 new firsts.

Today is Daniel's first day back working at church all day since Nathan was born. He's thankfully been able to take paternity leave and work from home. So today is my first day without him here :( Grandma is still here so I don't have to stay alone with him quite yet. I really appreciate all if her help, especially since I can't drive for two weeks. Thanks Grandma!
Nathan went back to the doctor to have his weight checked this morning. We are tracking him until his weight is back to his birth weight. We got all packed to go early this morning (a much longer process than pre-baby) just as we were about to leave, we heard a loud "squirt" come from Nathan's bottom. He thankfully rode peacefully with a poop diaper to the doctors (he likes the car). And then Nathan had another milestone.... His first public diaper change, performed by Daniel. Daniel has been the king of diaper changes, taking on even the gross tar like poop the first days. Nathan did great at the doctor and gained 3oz in two days.
Here he is at the doctor.

Growing like a bean

Another brilliant baby idea! :) I thought this would come in handy to measure our little bean. He seems to grow so quickly, this can keep us up to date. It's a baby measuring sheet, just lay babies head in the center and it tells you how long they are. Parents can measure baby from any direction, find more photos and info here.

Childbirth, Childbirth everywhere

We attended our first childbirth class last night, an event that neither Daniel or I was looking that forward to. I was hesitant for a few reasons, one being that the minute I put this on the calender THREE MONTHS AGO, other events happening on these specific Mondays have been coming up. Secondly, is that my husband has a condition that happens during every parenting type of class that we go to, lets call it "giggle-at-inappropriate-times disease." It's not that he is not interested in the topics, but for some reason the other parents in the classes that we go to are usually really reserved and quite. So we will sit in silence waiting for the class to begin, sit silently through the class and then leave. Daniel's response to this is to make jokes and laugh throughout the class. Childbirth class has been no exception to this trend, and I joined him in the giggling this time. Although it hurt so bad to try to hold in my laughter, I began to have tears. All of th...

Alternative Diaper Bag

We have been having a struggle finding the ultimate diaper bag. I have purchased two so far and looked a hundred more. We are looking for one that can hold all of our stuff, fit into the basket of our stroller, and looks trendy so Daniel can carry it and not be totally awkward. We recently switched to an old backpack that I had. It seems to be working, but my search continues. Today I found this.... it's a jacket for dads that functions as a diaper bag. All the storage, coolness and functionality we are looking for and its hands free! And as a bonus, it basically ensures that Daniel would be the one changing diapers. It has a changing pad in the back pocket and an easy access wipes pocket. It also has a side pocket for bottle. GENIUS!!! www.dadgear.com
