4 weeks old


This is one of my favorite onesies that Dalton wears. Here he is resting in his stroller on a walk around the neighborhood.

On Saturday, Travis decided that we should head out to lunch at ClaimJumper...a favorite place for him to get chicken and biscuits. We enjoyed lunch, and realized that "heading out" will never be the same. It was Murphy's Law....Just as lunch arrived at the table, Dalton woke up from his nap and was ready to eat! So, I cut Trav's chicken so he could eat one handed and feed Dalton. We switched midway so that Travis could enjoy his lunch two handed. Just then I realized we had a lil diaper blowout issue, so lunch was over for me for a bit to do cleanup! Never a dull moment!!! CLASSIC!!!

On our way home, we decided to head to Costco to stock up on some essentials and a few easy meal ideas for the mom who just doesn't feel like cooking lately! Here's the two guys advertising a nice comfy leather sofa!
Yesterday, Dalton turned 4 weeks old! WE CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! I suppose all of you that have said, "Enjoy every minute with him because it goes by fast!!!!" are SOOOO right! He looks different already and is starting to explore his tongue more, flopping it around to entertain himself. He looks right into your eyes and I swear he looks right into your soul too. (Clearly I am loving being with him....I could spend hours just cuddling!) I am so blessed to have this time to spend with him before I head back to work in August.

Yesterday, we went to my cousin, Marlene's (aka Auntie M's) house to celebrate her little boy, Trevor's 3rd birthday! In honor of the big day, Dalton wore his Tykesido, handmade by his Auntie Niki!
We had a great time with family. Dalton is sure surrounded by a bunch of love! He loved having his Auntie M, Auntie Mary, Nana, and bigger cousin, Kyle, hold him. Kyle was a pro! He held him so carefully and confidently.

  1. Dalton looks like he is ready for a pah-tay in his litte tykesido. Tell Annika I want one in a 6mo version!

  2. Ah, you gotta love the diapper blow outs ;) They never happen at a convient time. Dalton sure is looking cute. Glad you guys are having a blast getting to know your little person.
