Four weeks old, plus a few videos

Andrew turned 4 weeks old this week. It is amazing how time flies. He is getting more and more alert, and is now awake all morning and asleep all night (not including a feeding every 3 hours). He has always been in 3-6 month clothes, but now they actually fit him.

I have been promising our family we would put up some of the recent videos. Here is Andrew this morning after his feeding.

One funny thing about Andrew is how much he likes to move his head around--particularly when we're trying to burp him over the shoulder.

Happy 3 weeks old

So our Andrew is now three weeks old. Here are some pics that Eric took of our little Chicago GSB (now Booth) guy. Great job Eric.

Mike promised the GSB LEAD peeps that we'd send some pics of Andrew in his future LEAD facilitator polo.

We just adore being parents to such an angel.

Almost two weeks

Here is our little philosopher son, deep in thought (okay, asleep). Mike just took this a minute ago as we were putting up this post. He loves to put his hand up when he sleeps.

Tomorrow is Andrew's second week birthday. Here are some pictures of the last two weeks.

We're so happy grandma Marianne is here! Andrew couldn't be happier (and Erin & Mike can finally get some sleep).

Here are pics of Andrew's first trip to the pediatrician. Let is be known that he was nine days old in this picture and weighed in at 11 pounds 6 ounces. Our pediatrician didn't believe the scale and had to weigh him twice.

We love our little Andrew.

My first walk with Andrew all on my own. Here we are outside of our building.

Dad and son naptime bonding.

These below were all taken when Grandma Jillair was here. We loved having her here. She did so much for us while Erin was bedridden and recovering. Thank heavens for grandmas and pain meds.

More daddy & son pics.

Happy birthday Erin! Erin got just what she wanted--a happy & health baby. What a blessing Andrew is in our lives. Thanks to Heather and Allen for the fabulous ice cream cake!

Finally back at the ranch

More pictures of Andrew...


Here is our little sleepyhead.

Mike loves the below pic because this is exactly how he sleeps (arm up). Like father, like son...

Here we are at the hospital getting ready to go home.

Here we are putting on his first outfit to take him home in (previously all he wore were kimono tees and swaddling blankets). We got a bit on video. What an event.

Dad and son moment at the hospital.

First pee on the shirt...we had to capture this moment.


This video is for Nathan and Hannah. For everybody else, don't feel like you have to watch this (it's a bit long), but we figure the family will want to see the "first outfit" moment.
