Week 2...Bath Time!

Quinn's umbilical cord finally came off this week and he enjoyed his first bath!  He was unsure of  bath time at first, but then he really enjoyed it!  So fun :) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2 Weeks Old
 
I Like:  To look at black and white photos, eat often, and look at ceiling fans :)
 
Dislike:  Well, Quinn had a cold this week so he very much disliked that! 
 
Sleeping Patterns:  Sleeps well at night; wakes every 3.5 hours to eat...good Baby! 

Milestones:  I sleep in my crib...such a big boy!

Week 1


Quinn Bradford has been such a good baby for Mom and Dad! It's hard to imagine our life without him. Even in the middle of getting peed and pooped on we are laughing and enjoying every moment with our sweet baby boy!

Week 40


Say what?  Nov 11th has come and past :(  Oh how I wish our baby would come soon!!!  I know he will come when he is good and ready, but Baby M your Mom and Dad are dying to meet YOU! 


This weekend in downtown Bentonville Senator John McCain spoke in celebration of Veteran's Day.  It was such a nice day and we enjoyed the festivities with some friends! 


Our formal dining room works great for a baby catch all room!  So all of Baby M's toys are ready to go we just need Baby M :)


Made the Hubby take a candid since I feel entirely too big to put the dress on again!

  • Size of baby? The size of: Pumpkin
  • Gender? Sweet little Boy

  • Feel the baby move? Baby M likes to stick his butt out :) He will switch from side to side...too funny! My stomach looks totally distorted when he does his tricks!
  • Symptoms?  I still don't have any complaints.  I have been blessed with a good pregnancy.  I keep having dreams I delivered him...why wouldn't that be nice if I woke up and Baby M just magically appeared :)  Right now at 40 weeks I do tire easy, but that is to be expected :) 
  • What's going on this week?  We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our son!  Can't wait to see what he looks like. 
  • Belly Button (in or out)?   Honestly it changes everyday!
