We Out

Headin' out tomorrow morning for a week in Utah...Salt Lake and Bryce Canyon National Park.
Later Y'alls!

Just like Poppa

so at about 4:30 in the AM I awoke to the familiar sound of Bennett letting out a few grunts to tell us he's hungry. Shortly after the first 2 grunts we hear a loud "toot". And by "toot" I mean "fart". I looked at Rory who I thought was still sleeping and he let out a big laugh. We both started laughing. Then Bennett farted again. And again. Then he grunted. Then he farted. Then Rory farted. Then Bennett farted. Then Rory farted and grunted. Then Bennett grunted and farted a few more times before he let us know the laughing and the fun-time was over and someone needed to pick him up and stick a boob in his mouth!

New Discovery

New discovery this week: Armpit jam.

Yep, babies get armpit jam....yucky, sweaty lent jam crammed into his fat rolls under the armpit.

Scary stuff.

A much needed break

This week we started bottle feeding - just every now and then to give me a break. Its about time!

That makes someone else pretty happy too.

Sir Poops-a-lot

Today Daddy Bill, Gee Gee and I took Bennett on a road trip for his one month birthday...up the east side of the Rocky Mtns. We had to stop about every half hour to feed and change the little man. He sure does poop a lot. I shall call him Sir Poops-a-lot.




















Hangin in the backyard in our new chairs.

Bennett meets Daddy Bill and Gee Gee...

3weeks

We've survived 3 weeks with child. Monday was not a good day for me and I had a few break-downs throughout the day. Bennett was just really fussy all day and I was running on an hour of sleep. Tuesday was much better and Rory even came home for lunch to help out. Wednesday he was back to being the perfect baby and my friends Sara and Shana brought me lunch and hung out with us for awhile.

Last night we took Bennett to Alive@Five for the first time. We hung out with Andrew, Becky and baby Adrienne (14 months) while they babysat. It was pretty strange to realize that this is what life is like now...instead of socializing and drinking beer after beer we were chasing around a toddler and gazing at a 3 week old baby.
