A few "firsts" around here

Here are Wyatt's first few life experiences around here. He is growing at an incredible rate and is really aware of Ben and I. It is so fun and we are grateful for a healthy, growing baby boy. We'll keep him!

Bumbo chair experience

Blowout

Sponge Bath - sound asleep! 


Big Bath - which he loves.
The only time he has cried (screamed his brains out) was when I doused him in freezing cold water thinking it was warm. He yelled at me.

Nap in the bed with Daddy

Christmas in Camp Verde

Meeting Great Grandma Brady

Chatting with Great Grandma Crane


Holding head up steadily

New Years Eve

Family Photoshoot

Big smile and "coo-ing"
I have to write down some milestones so I don't forget:
Sleeping through the night (6-7 hours stretch): 6 weeks old, with the exception of a few bad nights with growing spurts
Holding his head up without bobbing: 8 weeks old
Coo-ing and smiling: 6 weeks old

8 weeks old - January 8th
Weight: 13 pounds 7 ounces - 85th percentile
Height: 24.25 inches - 90th percentile
    Head: 16.25 inches - 80th percentile

These pictures are great. I'm glad that you are already having fun with him. I'm going to make fun of my babies so much it's ridiculous.
