Birthday, bath, and Grandpa

Yesterday was Sarah’s b-day which we celebrated quietly at home with her favorite new gift.

Grant also got his first bath in the tub after his cord fell off, and even Sake helped out.  She surprised Sarah in the bathroom by going all billy-goat and hopping onto Sarah’s back while Sarah was bathing Grant.  And of course instead of me removing the cat I grabbed the camera :)

We also picked up Grandpa Miller from the airport and he has been won over by Grant’s charm.

Happy Two Week Celebration

It’s hard to believe that just two weeks ago we met our little Grant.

The night before we met Grant, Pauly and I sat outside sharing ice cream at Graeter’s. It was a beautiful, clear night with Jupiter and Venus shining brightly. We enjoyed some quiet moments together and tried to imagine how our life would change after having the baby.

One week later we were in the thick of diaper changes, 2 am feedings and coming to terms with the huge responsibility we had undertaken. There was and continues to be a lot of uncertainty about everything, but the reward is well worth the worry.

Grant and Daddy - one week ago

Today, at 1:38pm we hit the two week anniversary of meeting Grant. We introduced him to work colleagues at our offices. As expected, he was well received by our friends and co-workers. Who can resist those sweet chubby cheeks?

It is amazing how two weeks can go by so slowly and yet so fast. Even the cats are happy to be near our sweet boy.
