Sleep Life Away

So I'm over three weeks old now. The belly button thingy is long gone and I've upgraded to this green tub.

Alright, two in a row with my eyes open! This time in the car. I must say I did a tremendous job on my first road trip.

All the grandparents have come to see me including this grandma...

...this grandpa...

...and this grandma. The picture of my other grandpa didn't really work out.

So anyway I like to sleep.

Mom tells Dad that I'm awake a lot during the day. He doesn't believe it.

Sleeping or not, relaxing is pretty much my favorite thing.

Here's some news. I started sleeping in my own room right at three weeks old. Pretty awesome huh?

May I Show You Some Photos

Last weekend we took our first road trip as a family of four. And it was a success. Of course anytime you can climb a tree you know you've had a good time.

Also spotted in the tree was this strange Luke creature.

Anybody who knows me knows I'm not all play. Got to do work. Grandpa needed some mulching done and who better than us. No question he was pleased with the result.

Part of our trip included a party. Let's just say I worked up a sweat.

Right here I was going to have a picture of me sitting in a lawn chair holding a stick "fishing." There were other people (mom) in the photo though who don't want to be on the internet at this time. You should assume I looked amazing.

But before we went on that trip, Dad and I had our own track meet. As far as you know there are people running on the track (there wasn't).

Let me tell you I burned that track up.

You might guess that I get dirty pretty much every day. But don't worry I scrub up before bed.

Colin and me try to hit the sack about 8 o'clock. Key word there is try.

Gotta roll. Don't forget Club Colin.

It's Been One Week

It's been one week and they haven't messed me up yet. I still like to sleep, although my bedtime seems to be getting later every night.

Again, I like to sleep. It really doesn't matter where. This bouncy seat is just perfect for a nap right before bedtime.

Seriously, I am handsome. Just ask me. Of course I won't answer. Because I'm a baby.

On my big one week birthday we headed out of the house for the first time. It was an exciting afternoon of Babies-R-Us, my first doctor appointment (I'm perfect thank you) and picking up the big bro. It was the first time the whole family rolled together in the car.

Moments before the doctor checked me out I peed all over this table.

What better way to cap off the day than to take a little walk in the new buggy. There was another person in this picture but she refused to sign the model release form. Grady and I of course were made for the camera.

Hanging With Little C

I've been doing a lot of cool stuff. Like playing baseball in the yard, playing with bubbles and drawing on the sidewalk with chalk. What I like most though it hanging out with Colin.

People have always accused me of being a good helper. And they're right. When it came time for Colin's bath, I was Mommy's right-hand man.

Hard to believe I used to be that little.

If you haven't been to Club Colin, then you're just missing out.

Let's Get Clean

I'm getting more and more aware of my surroundings (not pictured). One thing I've already learned is that if I stop crying, Daddy will stop singing.

On Sunday I got my first bath at home. If you don't like pictures of bath time then you should just stop now.

Grady and I were confused about this bath because he takes one in the bathtub. Apparently I take mine on the kitchen table.

It's important to cover your left eye when getting your hair washed. No, I'm kidding, that's not important at all.

And there I am in all my glory. Clean and ready to go back to sleep.

Here are my muscles. Make that huge muscles.

Grady loves me and likes to be where I am. One thing I would tell all other little brothers...get off the tracks when the train is coming through!

Fully dressed and ready for a new day. What a handsome dude.

This has nothing to do with bath time, but Aunt Kelli came to visit. She's pretty comfortable.

I like to sleep, as all babies should. So far I'm 3-for-3 on sleeping all night. Grady likes to be awake.

Don't forget to visit my brother!

My Big Brother Loves Me

My big brother Grady came to see me and let me tell you it's always a treat when brothers meet. I can tell we are going to have fun together.

I guess the big guy likes me because he gave me some kisses.

In the hospital I mostly spent my time sleeping. But here I am with my eyes open.

I was looking mighty fine when the picture lady came around.

Here's all of us. Me, Grady, Mom and Dad.

Friday it was time to finally leave the hospital and I got to sit in my carseat for the first time.

More carseat action, this time in the car.

For those of you who like to see me in action. I don't blame you, I would want to see me in action too!

Welcoming The Little Bro Home

These are Mom's three boys. Good luck to her!

In case you live under a rock and didn't know I got a new brother, his name is Colin and I personally took this sweet picture of him.

Grandpa was at our house on Friday and cooked us some yummy fish, without the tails, because I made sure. Then us boys sat with him on the couch.

Colin is using this car seat. I thought it was pretty funny how small it was. Or maybe I'm just big.

You can see I love my new little brother.
