Owen's First Week in the World

After our first week as parents we have survived ;) Owen has been an adventure as we learn what he wants when he cries and his habits. We had our first doctors appointment on the 12th and Owen checked out great, he weighed in at 9lbs. Then we also gave him his first bath yesterday, he wasn't a fan of the water. We are so impressed by all our little boy does so far. He grasps your hand with his fingers when you play with him or when he eats. When he is awake, which is only a few hours during the day and a lot at night, he looks at you with his dark steely-blue eyes to see what is going on. We can't wait to see what he can do as he gets older.

Here are a variety of pictures from the hospital until now (they may be intermixed):

Just like my cousins I like my boppy :)

This is Owen's hospital picture, it's not like
the traditional type of picture. Isn't he cute?
