First Bath

Trace's first bath was finally after his umbilical cord fell off (he was about 2 1/2 weeks). Well he did pretty good until I took him out. Then he got a little perturbed. And I used this cute towel that says Little Prince! :)

Trace looking mad AFTER his bath

I am pretty happy...
Not so sure about this bath stuff.
What is this craziness?

The Stork

Of course, we had a stork in the front yard; however, we didn't take a picture with it until the other day when it was FREEZING...we forgot to take a picture the day we came home.

My sister got the stork from a good friend down the road and set it up the day he was born! Thanks to Aunt Pretty!

Coming Home

Trace got to come home on Christmas Eve! What a wonderful Christmas Eve present. So technically after he was born we were really there only a day or so. If it had not been the holidays, I might have stayed longer considering they wait on you and bring you meds and food! :) Next time, I will stay my 48 hours! ha!

These are his coming home pictures:

Trace in his car seat for the first time.
