The First Time...

Some of the "firsts" in Adam's life:
His first bath...
December 6th (don't worry, he was cleaned before this, but this is his first time in the tub)

No big deal, eh?  He already looks so small to me in this picture!
His first time on his playmat with dangly toys.  He loves this thing and is starting to get excited when he hits the various toys.
Phil and I admiring Adam.
Adam had his two-week check up on Thursday, December 12.  Some things to note:
1. He weighed 8 lbs. 13 oz.  at his check up.
2. He is becoming much more alert during the day, and loves to look at faces and different toys.  I think he wants to grab them, but hasn't quite figured that out yet.
3. He slept for three hours straight last night...heaven!
4. He is quickly outgrowing his newborn clothes.  I can't believe how much he changes each day.  His face is filling out, and he seems to be learning quickly about his world.

Thanks for sharing all these pictures Dana! We love getting to know Adam from afar. Oh, we went to the Blankenships last night for dinner and had to have a little moment when we got to your old place and you weren't there anymore. :( Hope you're enjoying yourselves in Ohio! Merry Christmas!

Is "dangly toys" the official term? i always wondered.

Glad to hear Adam is thriving so well- and bonus, letting you get a stretch of sleeve :) I'll be thinking about you tomorrow!
