Liam on the move...

Today was a beautiful day so we decided to take Laim on his first 'hike' (but in his stroller). There is snow on the mountains now in the distance and the ski season opens end of November...we can't wait to hit the slopes.

Nothing else to really report - he's sleeping pretty well although uses Annette as a snack bar sometimes. We have been taking a lot of little videos as well since he's changing so much each day it seems.

We survived the week...

This week was the first week that I went back to work and it was challenging but not impossible. I had to be in Chicago this week for a night so Annette braved things on her own and, as you'd expect, she did really well with Liam.

He seems to be changing every day now and although we don't think he's gained a lot of weight, he is eating really well and getting more and more alert all the time. He now stays up and 'plays' for an hour or two after eating whereas before he just flopped asleep.

Annette has taken him out for a few walks as well as the weather has been great here. We are looking forward to the weekend and expect to relax a lot and take him maybe on a drive to see the leaves changing colors.

One Week Old...

Liam turned 7 days old today! Today was also my first day back at work and Annette's first day on her own with little Liam. Fortunately, we all survived just fine.

Annette took Liam for a walk today and is able to better get around now as she has pretty much recovered from last Monday.

We are all getting more and more into the swing of things now and he is even up after feedings (instead of falling right to sleep) for some playtime. He is looking around a lot and taking everything in - or so it seems!

We also got him a swing that we can put him in for some 'entertainment' as it has sound, lights and spinning little fish. He seems to like it even though it swings pretty fast even on the slowest setting. It freaked us out more than it did him though.
