Bath Time without Tears

Bath time was a success last night!! Bryce didn't cry before, during, or after his bath. I don't know what clicked this time, but I hope it continues. I think the key is Daddy! I do the washing and the shampooing, but Jason does the preparation. He must have gotten the bath water the perfect temperature and the perfect amount in the tub! Isn't he so cute......even if looks slightly like ET in the picture!

Happy Friday

We bundled up and went to Bruster's last night for ice cream. We thought Bryce looked so cute in this silly hat so we took some pictures before we left. Do you notice that he is looking at the camera? We were so amazed and excited during this photo shoot because Bryce followed Jason every where he went with the camera. It's so exciting that he is starting to notice his surroundings. It's amazing what can happen in a month!

One Month

Bryce is a month old today!! We had to go the pediatrician today, so we made it a family affair. Bryce is up to 9lbs (up from 7.10 at birth) which puts him in the 25-50 percentile for weight. He is 21 3/4 inches long (up from 21 at birth) which puts him in the 50-75 percentile for height. His head was 14 1/2 inches and he is in the 25 percentile for that. He is a growing boy. I wasn't feeling well last night so Jason decided in order for me to get a good night sleep, Bryce needed to sleep in his crib in his room instead of the bassinet in our room. He did really well. We only had to get up once because he was fussing for reasons other than food. Jason stayed home today and let me sleep all afternoon. Hopefully I have finally gotten rid of my fever and will be back to normal tomorrow!

Rolling Over

I didn't know babies could roll over at 3 1/2 weeks, but Bryce did!! Here is a picture to prove it. He did it all by himself, TWICE. So maybe it was just a fluke, but a mom can get excited......can't she?!? I was going to post some bath time pictures to show you how much Bryce hates a bath, but none of them were blog appropriate!!

Pictures for Daddy

Bryce was in a good mood this morning so I decided to play a little dress up with him. Jason isn't one to be interested in clothes for the baby, but he sure does love the SHOES. He bought these shoes for Bryce a long time ago. He won't be able to wear them for long so I decided to break them out today. We hope you like the picture, Daddy!!

I got a Snuggie!!

I have been wanting a Snuggie since Christmas. I finally got one at Walgreens last night! I can't wait to try it out.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Tummy Time

Chase let us borrow his "girly" tummy time mat. I'm not sure Bryce really likes it yet, but the nurses said to start tummy time right away. He is starting to pick his head up a little bit, but he still likes to have his head turned toward the side. At least I was able to get a good picture of his face!

Love the Swing

Bryce loves his swing....most of the time. He looks like he is on a roller coaster ride in this picture. As you can tell by the unbuckled straps, it really isn't like a roller coaster. Don't anyone report us because he is not properly strapped in!!

I just had to post this picture because you can obviously see that he has a mouth and two lips. In most pictures his lips are together and he has his bottom lip sucked in so far you wouldn't know he had a bottom lip.

2 weeks

Little man is 2 weeks old today. He is doing great. We went back to the pediatrician yesterday and got a good report. Apparently he likes to eat like his mommy because he is definitely gaining weight. He was 7.10 when he was born. He had gotten down to 7 and he was 7.1 when we left the hospital on Sunday. When we went to the doctor the following Tuesday he was 7.5. We went to the doctor yesterday (Tuesday) and he was a whopping 7.14!! Hopefully we don't have a little chunkster on our hands.
