Settling in at home

Here I am about to leave the hospital for my first trip out into the world.

I am settling in at home. The first night was a rough one. I kept mom and dad up all night. I decided to lighten up a bit and slept for 2-4 hour spurts the last 2 nights and mom and dad were much happier with me.

I got all dressed up in my pirate outfit to meet my doctor for the first time. I was pooped after the long trip. I guess I am like my mom, always trying to lose weight because I dropped to 7 pounds 2 ounces. I think I am getting bigger by the day now though since mommy's milk came in.

My first bath was a rough one. What is up with all the wet stuff and people rubbing all over me? I have to admit I smell much better with the lotion on though.

Mornings are when I am the most alert. Mommy and meemaw were trying to get me to pose like a movie star for a picture for my birth announcement. I was teasing them by not smiling and always turning my head right when the flash went off. I even gave them a salute in one picture.

Both sets of my grandparents can't keep their hands off of me. I sure can't wait for them to spoil me rotten.

Daddy and I are getting to be best buds. He has even learned to change a pretty mean diaper. He still hasn't set the world's record for the fastest change, but I have seen tons of improvement.
