Nathan's 1 month doctor visit

Nathan's 1 month doctor visit was on Jan 18th.
He measured 22 3/4 inches long and weighed in at 11 pounds 13 ounces.

Bath time!

Wow...as each day goes by...I see more of Jon in Nathan...
Does Nathan look like me...even just a little bit??? =)

Daddy & Me

A poem that I stole from my cousin's blog. =)

A new year begins, an old one ends,

What brings us joy?

Our loved ones and our friends.

All the happy times,

How they enrich our lives,

We reflect upon what really counts,

As the fresh and bright new year has arrived.

What would YOU do?

Amazing how paint and hardwood floors can drastically change the look of a room.
Check out the pics below. It's before and after pics of our living area.
We painted the walls and got rid of the carpet. The hardwood floors were underneath the carpet!

Before


After

Anyhow, I have no idea what to do with the fireplace. Should I leave the mantle dark brown, or should I paint it white? Or, any other suggestions?

Quarantined

Can't believe it's already been 3 weeks! One more week to go before I can leave the house.
It's been rough, but I think Jon and I are getting used to the daily and nightly schedule. The first week was definitely the hardest.
Feedings are still every 3 hours...sometimes 2 hours when Nathan is really hungry. Just yesterday, he was really fussy and angry because he just kept on wanting more milk! Supposedly, babies have a growth spurt at 3 weeks, so that's what Jon and I assume what was happening.
He is taking in about 4 ounces at each feeding (normally)...peeing 8 times a day and pooing 4 times a day. =)
He smiles sometimes when he's sleeping, but that smile quickly turns into a frown. It's amusing to watch.
Well, here's a recent picture of him...I'm trying to burp him.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful '08!!
