The BIG One!
Here is a slideshow of Harrison's first Birthday. His Nona was here to share in the celebrations! She got him the crown, t-shirt & bib, and pretty much all of the decorations! Thank goodness! We were just home from the hospital and were lucky to even have been able to get this much done for him. We had a blast watching him figure out the cake, and he loves it (totally my child!!) He was not thrilled about the ice cream, though! Maybe one day.
Hope you enjoy it.

First week of life!!
The pictures are in reverse order of her age....obviously, you can tell by her little round face The bottom one one is the day we came home, hence the "come home" outfit...and the top one is from two days ago. Yesterday we had her follow-up weight check appointment and she HAS GAINED ONE POUND!!! Already! WooHoo! Go US! The doctor actually thought the scale was wrong, and then commented on my "Dynamite" breastmilk. Yes, he actually said dynamite. We are so proud that this time breastfeeding is working...so far anyway! What great validation, as Mom would say!
Looking at her pictures, she is already favoring Harrison so much! They are going to be just adorable together!

Our little Lady B
We are finally home...I left early. There was no getting anything done at the hospital, as usual, right. The one place they say to "rest and heal" is like the worst place to try and actually do just that! So, we are home and B is sleeping...in her carseat. She loves it...today.
She is a trooper...already so different than the last time we journeyed this path.
The new Blog picture at the top is her take home outfit from Jess (I had her initials monogrammed), and my Johnnie gown Mom hand-sewed for me in the backdrop. I am wearing it in the pictures below as well.
Here are a few pictures we acquired during the short stay. She is just so sweet, and loves loves loves to be snuggled!
Thank you all for your Congrats, we are overjoyed right now!!!
Love you all!

Bear's FIrst Haircut
My mother, who is slightly obsessive about hair, has been begging me to get H's hair trimmed for months, and I just did not want him to look like a child instead of a baby. After all, he does resemble a small two year old most days.
Finally, after motivation from Kinsey, we decided to find a kid's place and get the first trim done. We found Snip-Its in our favorite town, Natick (the apple orchard place). It reminded me of Disney World. All of the stools and toys and TVs looked like Mickey and Minnie's houses at the park. How fun for them! There were children running around everywhere enjoying such a dreaded chore...the haircut. Our lady was so sweet with him, blowing bubbles for a distraction and offering him animal cookies. I was really glad she got to know him before just throwing him in her chair and cutting. I think it made it easier for little Bear as well. At this age, they really are aware of so many things, and I think it is important for people to respect them, even if they are so small. They are still people. We got to stand right there with him for comfort (mostly my own, I think), and I was snapping pictures like poparazzi while blowing bubbles that were obviously running out... I know I used to know how to blow bubbles??? It was a fun time for all of us. I can't believe he is almost one, and it will not be long before a haircut will be no big thing, but yesterday, it was the greatest!
Here is a picture of the final do. And his certificate below it. She attached some of his "snip-its" to the certificate for us to keep as a momentum. He had a good time, and was so sweet smiling and, of course, flirting with all the ladies. At the end, when I paid, they gave him a "free toy" card to put into a machine that makes a lot of noise and gives them back a little toy. He loved it, but was looking for the card when it went down the slot. I think he wanted the card more than the actual penguin he got in return. Funny little boy!
