Kieran's 2nd week

It's been a fun week with little Kieran. He's kept us busy for sure! We've had many visitors stopping by with home cooked meals and fresh baby-holding arms. It's been loads of fun showing off our little one. He prefers napping on us but the couch pillows and Shiway's beautiful crocheted blanket will do in a pinch. Thanks Shiway! Kieran loves his blanket - you'll see we take it everywhere :)


Bushka and Grandaddy (Kaufman) sent a wonderful rocking chair that has turned into the house favorite. It's my primary nursing spot but Kieran shows here that nursing isn't all it's good for. He melts if you rock him long enough.


Kieran had his first home bath last week. It was just a quick wipe down with a wash cloth but you'd have thought we were trying to drown him for all the fuss he gave us! To get back at us Kieran peed as soon as we wrapped him in a clean towel and set him in his little chair. He's quite the covert wetter...we still haven't caught him in the act. We can keep him naked as long as we want and he'll stay dry. The moment you turn him on his belly or throw a blanket over him it's all over. Pee city. Thanks to Hieke for the great bath towel...it's officially been christened ;)


Grandpa and Grandma Lee (Nielson) gave Kieran his super comfy vibrating chair. Boy, what an important little piece of furniture! It's really our only baby "helper" and it's great when I need five minutes hands free to run to the outhouse or to brush my teeth. Sometimes it even works as an afternoon nap spot. Here he is vibrating away. I wouldn't mind one in my size.


What a sweet little boy. We've had more awake time with Kieran this week. He's much more content to sit back and take in his surroundings these days. We've discovered that he's got the most beautiful deep blue eyes and his little sleep smiles have given us a preview of his perfect little baby grin - complete with little baby dimples. Can't wait to see it for the first time during his waking hours! He loves his squirrel suit (what we call his "mommy's nuts" shirt) from Auntie April. Thanks April!
