Today we took Liam for his appointment with the physician and it all went really well. He seems to like riding in the car as much as we do and he passed his 'check-up' with flying colors. He is now 8pnds 3ounces having lost a few ounces since birth (this is normal, and only 6% of his body weight...which is good).
Our friends Heather and Joel, who had a baby boy named Austin a few weeks ago, are bringing dinner over tonight and the little lads are going to hang out together. Well, they'll probably just sleep but it's cool that Liam already has a mate.
Annette is doing really well with the breastfeedings and she's getting to be a real pro now. He sometimes uses her as a snack bar instead of a full place to have a meal, but both of them are doing really well. I've started back to work (not by choice) but am working out of the house so it's not too bad right now....my first trip away is going to be a killer.
Annette's Mom has been here for 2 weeks now but heads back to New Jersey on Saturday. She's already making plans on how she can sneak Liam home with her :) It's been great for us to have her here and we've all really enjoyed time together both before Liam's arrival and after.

Congratulations to both of you! You've got lovely boy! We are happy that everything went OK. BTW, great photos Ross, we are looking forward to more :)
Annette and Ross,
We are all trilled that Liam Jackson Smith is finally here. We can't wait to meet him. Please call me should you need someone to talk to. I'm no expert but being a new mom myself I can tell you what worked and didn't work for us. We love you all and miss you very much. Hugs and Kisses to you all especially our little munchkin, Liam.
Love,
Yola, Vin and Ava
