Karter is 1 month old!

I can hardly believe that Karter is already a month old.  This has been the fastest, yet hardest month of my life!!  It really has flown by as far as time goes, yet really has been the hardest adjustment.  Karter is an excellent baby and I love him to pieces, but I must say being a mommy is HARD work.  Together Jasen and I have worked really hard together learning to adjust to being new parents, little to no sleep, learning Karter's cries, finding time to get off the couch from feeding,  and how packing up things to just run an errand at a store can take an hour! LOL.  

Over the last month we have had a ton of visitors from family, friends, and co workers all excited to get in snuggle time with Karter!  Our home was beautiful with all the flowers and goodies received celebrating Karter's birth, and we also have had some great meals brought over to help make our lives easier!  You all have NO idea just how much this helped us, and just how much we needed it!! You all are wonderful and we feel blessed to have you in our lives!


Here are a few pictures of friends and family that have come to see Karter.  There are so many more people that have come to love on him, but I didn't get pictures with, please know that I love you all and please don't feel left out if I forget to mention you. Thanks for visiting us, or allowing us to come visit Claudia, Michelle, Laura, Tricia,Lori & Dale,  Rosa, Susan, Elayne, Martin Family, SKHS Counseling staff (lunch at SKHS), Amanda, Kristy, Raphael Family, Grandma Leslie, Auntie Allie & Cousin Kylie, Akin Brandy & Kinley, Tumwater PD, Laina & Jed, and to anyone else I might have missed!

 I also wanted to update you all since my last blog regarding bath time for Karter!!  Below is a picture from his 2nd bath at home.  As you can see in the picture bath time 2, was much more of a success and he was much happier!

Ok! Bath time isn't  HORRIBLE!
