My Visit With Sallie

Thomas's cousin Ward, his wife Julie, and their little girl Sallie came to visit Warren today. Sallie has grown so much since the last time Thomas and I saw her! She's eating baby food and sitting up on her own now! Warren enjoyed visiting with Sallie and hopes they can get together again really soon.

One Month Check-Up

Warren went for his one month check-up today. He got a great report (as usual). He weighed 9 lbs. 6 oz. and was 22 1/2 in. long. Dr. Sanders said he was a strong little boy and she'd see him again at two months when he'll start his immunizations. She said to prepare myself because he will get four shots at the next visit--I hope I can handle it!

My Visit With Jacob, Sydney, and Emma

Last night Thomas's friends Clay and Kim came to cook out with us. They brought their children-Jacob, Sydney, and Emma. These are some pictures we took. The girls were very excited to see Warren and brought him two presents- a wrist rattle and two cute outfits. We all had a great time and hope they will come back to visit us again soon!

Another one of Thomas's friends came over last night, too. Beth was scared to hold Warren at first, but we talked her into it and she did a great job!

Tummy Time

Today I went to Babies R Us and got Warren a Boppy Activity Gym. This is supposed to help him strengthen his head and neck muscles while lying on his tummy. He's gotten pretty good at this just from laying on Thomas and me, but I thought this might give him something to do while I cook dinner, clean, etc. These are some pictures we took of his very first "tummy time" session.

My First Babysitter

I had some errands to run, a haircut, and a facial on Tuesday, March 13, so Aunt "B" offered to keep Warren. They spent most of the day together and Warren had a great time!

Going Camping

Warren's first real outing was on Saturday, March 10. We went to Twin Lakes to visit Sport and Prissy while they were camping. Abby and Scooter met Warren for the first time, but they weren't too sure about how to take it. Abby finally calmed down and left Warren alone, but Scooter kept watch over Warren almost the entire evening while trying to figure out exactly what was in the carrier.

Second Doctor Visit

Warren went back to the doctor for a 2-week check-up on Thursday, March 8. Once again, he got a good report and had gained up to and surpassed his birth weight. He now weighs 7lbs. 4oz.--I guess he's getting PLENTY to eat!!!

First Doctor Visit

Warren's first doctor appointment was on Tuesday, February 27. He had to have his circumcision checked to be sure it was healing properly, and they wanted to check his weight since I am breastfeeding to be sure he was getting plenty to eat. He got a good report and his weight had dropped to 6lbs. 8oz, which they said was normal for the first couple of weeks. This is a picture of him before we left the house for his first "outing."

Uncle Zach

Warren finally got to meet his Uncle Zach today. He wasn't able to visit us in the hospital due to his work schedule. Warren really took to Uncle Zach and slept in his lap all afternoon.
