Grandma DJ's Birthday

Wishing Grandma a Happy Birthday

We headed north to celebrate Grandma DJ's birthday.  It was his first visit to his grandparent's house, and the longest excursion to date.

Celebrating With a New Title

I think Dave was just waiting for the light to be good...

Houston, we have a problem?

Last Friday, we noticed Jack got reddish spots on his face. I freaked out by thinking allergy or eczema. I called doctor's office right away and the nurse is used to new parents' frantic manners and told me it's no big deal. Somehow that didn't calm me down and I started reading cases on internet. Just for the record, I shouldn't do that. It could get really scary fast.

We had several visitors during the weekend and the experienced parents among them assured us that it was okay for little baby to have skin troubles several weeks after birth. That made us feel better and the fact that it doesn't bother Jack much also helped.

We are dealing with new challenges almost every day. I am looking forward to the days we look back through this blog and chuckle at our inexperience. :-)

He Even Has His Own Fruit!

Jackson's First Outing

He's been to the doctor several times, but we're not counting those as "outing".  We wanted to take advantage of some especially cool August weather, but Jackson was having none of it.

I guess the end of the driveway is a pretty long trip when you are only 21in long.

Visitors!

Jackson had a few visitors in week 2.  Thanks everyone for stopping by!
