First Bath




O-daddy's umbilical cord fell off today....which meant it was OK to give him his first bath. If you know my wife at all....you know that would mean it had to happen today (she is quite the clean freak). It was amazing that she was able to wait until tonight to do it....but we hoped it would relax him and get him ready for bed. Turns out that was a good decision....as he loved the bath. He didn't seem really happy at first...probably just confused....but once he got in the water he was like a pig in slop.

We did have a follow-up visit to the doctor today and he weighed 7 lbs 12 oz...which is above his birth weight. Obviously that is a good thing. Dr. Jan was pleased enough with how well he is doing that she said she doesn't need to see him again until he is 2 months old. Baseball season will already be cranking by that time....and I bet it will be here quickly.

Uncle Brian and Grandma (great-grandma) Wolfgram visited today which was great. Mrs. Wolfgram's friend Mrs. Libby came too....as she is a good comforter for Mrs. Wolfgram right now. It was really good that Brian finally got to come....as he has always loved on the girls so much and is such a great uncle....he just lives on the other side of Atlanta and takes care of his mom most of the time....which has made it hard to get over here up to this point. Hopefully he (O-daddy) will get to spend a little more time with the rest of the family over Christmas.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.
