1 Month Old


Your first picture. What a special day this was!
You are pretty content in your car seat

Most days that is! (sorry unsure how to flip pic)


You got your first picture with Santa Claus

You take lunch time naps with your daddy

Your first bath we got a picture of..you didn't like it
 

You love your bouncy seat and K-State!

I can't believe you are a month old! 

Starting to smile like daddy

Reflecting on the last month:
-You grew out of newborn clothes
-We are still squeezing you in newborn size diapers until we are out
-You have managed to potty on daddy & other things but not mommy
-You have gained 4 pounds since leaving the hospital!
-You are a great nurser and are happy when your tummy is full
-You have smiled at your mommy and daddy
-Your finger nails grow as fast as mommy's do
-Your cephalohematoma is getting smaller
-You do not like your pacificer
-At 2 weeks old you got moved to your crib and have been doing so well
waking up 2-3 times a night
-Mommy loves watching you stretch when she releases you from your 
straight jacket (swaddle) in the morning
-Mommy and daddy love you more and more each day

Uriah James

Uriah James arrived safely with this help of this wonderful woman, Dr. Glynn.  He was born on Monday night at 11:11pm weighing in at 6#13oz measuring 19in.  He is just so perfect.  Derek and I both agree we have now fallen in love with someone else besides each other now :) You are all probably wondering where did we come up with Uriah? Well, I first heard it in the NICU during my nursing capstone and looked up the meaning and loved it even more.  It means "led by God" or "God is my light."  We will call him Ri for short.

Our Story...



Derek and I began dating in 2006.  He followed me all the way through college.  We did lots of extra traveling having a long distance relationship.  It was all worth it when we tied the knot in June 2009.  We are expecting our first baby anytime.  Now that I will be a mommy I thought it was good time to begin blogging. Welcome to our blog!
