Nate was content chewing on his fingers until he spotted the camera...

he reached out to grab it...

and opened wide to eat it!

Over here, Nate!

Glad Nate got Edward's lashes and not mine

Sucking on that bottom lip

Off to see the doctor this morning

but first a few smiles

Here are the stats:
weight - 16 lbs. 4 oz, 75th percentile
height - 26 1/4 inches, 90th percentile
head circumference - 43 1/4 inches, 75th percentile

Nate got one oral vaccine (which he enjoyed slurping down) and two shots (which he did not enjoy). The nurse commented that he looks like a nine month old baby. We discussed his poor sleeping habits and for now I am going to try to nurse him more frequently during the day to increase his caloric intake so hopefully he won't be as hungry at night. We may also attempt sleep training in the next couple weeks so Nate can learn to fall back asleep on his own when he wakes up at night. Hmmm, not sure how this is going to work.


This video is from Labor Day weekend. I'm glad no one walked out of their room during this bit of puppy fun.
