First Few Weeks

It has been crazy. We are starting our second week of just Wes and I. It was so great to have my  mom here during those first two weeks. I was exhausted and it was nice to be able to feed him and then go back to bed and leave him with my mom to get him back to sleep.
Wes has already changed so much from in the hospital.













He is kicking his feet and reaching for things that touch his hand or are right in front of his face. He can also hold his head up for a good 30 seconds and even tries to sit up on his own, you can see him tighten his abs to pull himself up but the rest of his body isn't quite ready for that. He can lay on his stomach and move his head from side to side. He has started to smile more and I have even heard him giggle in his sleep. It is fun to see him doing new things, but it also is kind of sad that he wants to be big already and makes you wish for that first week back.
The pictures in his lamb really show how much bigger he has gotten.

Newborn Photos






We went to Sears one week after Wes was born and had his picture taken in his blessing outfit and just some newborn shots. I think they turned out really well.
His blessing was great. We were able to do on September 30th while my mom was here and most of Daniel's family was able to make it as well.
