Week One - We Survived!

We survived our first week at home! It’s been a busy week! We had many visitors, so many people have been anxious to meet Finley – I can’t blame them, he’s a sweetie! Grandpa even stopped by once to see if he’d grown. Great-Grandma Market came for a visit too!

Finley and I also took a few outings…we went to the doctor, to the mall, out for coffee (twice), to a housewarming party, to Target, and to the grocery store. What mom learned? Errands aren’t as quick and easy as they once were.


In the stroller ready to walk the mall!

Coffee with the ladies and Spencer!
Finley LOVES to sleep - so do his sleep-deprived mommy and his "sleep-deprived" daddy...mommy's not sure why daddy is sleep deprived, he gets wwwaaaayyyy more than she does!


Two BIG announcements:

  • Congratulations to Matty and Brooke! They welcomed their 3rd child (and first son) Hayden Bradford this week. Hayden was 11 pounds - way to go Brooke, I hope Matty buys you an extra special Push Present!

  • Congratulations to Kristi and Dan - they are joining the parenthood club! BabyMac is expected in February. I'm so excited for them as they start this crazy journey. I email Kristi my "thought for the day" each day so she knows what she's feeling/thinking is totally normal.


Here are some cute pictures from this week...


Finley loves to fold his hands, we have no idea
how he manages to do it!


Yet another picture to remind us how much babies grow in 3 months. Poor Spencer will probably grow up to have body-image issues!


Ready for Melissa and Dave's housewarming party in his coordinating outfit and blanket. About 10 minutes later, Finley had his first blowout and sprinkle while daddy was changing him. His new party outfit didn't make it to the party!
