Sleepy Time

Evan fell asleep on Daddy's chest after an early morning feeding.

Evan and I were both worn out!


Watching Football with Daddy

Evan sporting one of his Ohio State onsies while he watches his 1st Ohio State game with Daddy.

Evan wasn't too interested in the Browns game, but Nick sure was. Mamaw eventually took Evan away from Daddy because he was getting a bit too excited during the game.


1st Stroller Ride

As you can tell, Evan wasn't too excited about his first ride in his stroller. The weather was still nice outstide so Nick and I decided to take a walk around the neighborhood. I had been "locked up" for 3 days at the hospital and I just wanted to get outside and enjoy some fresh air. Nick and I had a nice walk, even though Evan cried half of the way around the neighborhood.

1st Bath

While Mamaw was here, we decided to give Evan his first bath which was actually a sponge bath. He did pretty well until we took all of his clothes off and then he got angry.






Lots of Visitors at Home Too!

Once we made it home on Friday afternoon, Evan had a lot of visitors. Mamaw Larrick came up that day and stayed with us for a few days to help us out. It was wonderful to have her help and as you can tell by the first picture, Evan liked having his Mamaw around too.

Uncle "Hoss" Brandon even made the trip up to see his special new nephew.

Uhl also stopped by during the Ohio State game.

Noah was excited to see his new baby cousin.

Uncle Nathan looks like a pro... he has had plenty of practice holding newborns. :)

Mamaw Larrick with her original lapdog, Noah. He doesn't fit on her lap quite as well as Evan does, but Noah still likes to sit on her lap when he gets the chance. :)

Aubrey thought that Evan needed some stuffed animals to play with. Yes, Evan is in there somewhere!

Getting Ready To Go Home!

What a month!

WOW! Has it really been over a month since my last post? We have been so busy just hanging out with Evan that I haven't taken the time to update my blog. Nick and I have had such an amazing month of bonding with our little guy. I am so grateful for all of the time that we have been able to spend together getting to know each other. Evan is so sweet, and we both are so in love with him! I will try to take some time and get this blog up to date.
