About to get kicked out of a coffee shop

Yay! we made it two weeks! As far as we can tell he doesn't hate us. At least not yet. Haha.

Also, We are pretty sure he is already used to camera flashes. Yup barely flinches.

How is baby? He is good, still holding onto all that hair, which is wonderful. He has started regularly leaving the house and going out into the world, (my how they grow!) Today in fact we took him down to the Saturday market and I got to carry him around in the sling that fits me. SOOOOO many people were stopping us and asking about him. Probably the closest to being a celebrity I've felt like in a while. Oh, for everyone who has been asking about the hats that Darbie posted a while back, (the kit ones with the little bill), We found a gal at the market that sells them at a much more affordable price, but still keeping in the quality. So we would be happy to take hat donations if you were thinking about getting one of these for us. This way we can support our local artisans and their work.

Great-Grandma Sandy & Great-Grandpa Bud both came to visit today. It was nice to see them. It really means a lot to Darbie and I that you have all taken time out of your lives to make the trek to see us. Near or far it means so much to us, and to Atom. Also on that note, everyone who think that bringing us food only made our lives a little easier are wrong. This has been a gigantic help. I know that just for myself, being able to come home from work and be able to spend time with the family rather than making food is a true gift, so thank you.


This is Great-Grandma holding Atom.

Darb and Atom have found a niche with their sleeping. Darbie has what seems like a sixth sense with him and wakes up and starts Atom feeding before he can even cry. Sometimes I don't even wake up. It's really pretty amazing.

Tomorrow we are set to meet with Pam, our midwife. We have total confidence that everything will go smoothly. Atom seems to be back up to his birth weight now. He sports the cutest little gut. I will have a to post a picture next time, I'm sure you will agree.

Darbie wanted me to put in about how on friday Atom must have been feeling vindictive, Durring a diaper change, (which was a mess in itself), then before a new diaper got on he started peeing, so darbie had to cover him with a blanket, she figured at this point she would just give him a bath. But on the way to the bathroom wrapped in a clean towel he pooped. The little guy likes going when he is not wearing his diaper.

In non-baby news: Darbie got a new tattoo this week. It's a little drawing that an artist did for us while we were on our honeymoon in Seattle at the comic-con. I myself managed to find a guitar hero guitar at goodwill of all places, man was that a steal, brand new in box!
