A Few Firsts...


Hooray! One week and one day down! And I had the whole weekend to enjoy with Lathan! Don't worry, we spent some time with Jim too, but he was working this weekend.

Day care seems to be off to a good start. Last Monday was a very difficult day. Though I think maybe the rest of the week was harder because reality set in. I absolutely adore the women that are caring for him during the day! They are thoughtful and really pour their hearts into taking care of the little ones! Lathan is one of 2-three month old's in the baby room (coincidentally they were born on the same day!). The rest of the infants are walkers and crawlers. We had to take our picture to commemorate his first day!

The day was made even brighter with an adorable flower arrangement from my family!

So now the second week begins and I realize that we are beginning to develop a routine. We are in the early stages, but we are getting there. I am so very thankful for the time I have with Lathan in the morning and the evening, and especially WEEKENDS!

This weekend included some of Lathan's "firsts"! He found his toes on Saturday. He could not stop grabbing them! I have yet to capture this on film. We enjoyed some time trying to score good deals at yard sales with Stacy, Audrey and Amanda! What fun we had! We found a few goodies and then enjoyed the afternoon with the ladies. It was in front of these women (I think Lathan felt he had to impress) that Lathan had his first ROLL!!!!! HOORAY!!! He rolled from front to back! He had quite the reaction from the ladies..obviously!! :)

Lathan after his first ROLL! Can't quite get his hand out from underneath himself!


There we go!! Such a big boy!!

He is growing up too fast! I am so grateful for all of the time that I get to spend with him! I am truly counting down the days until summer! At his appointment today, he weighed in at 14lbs 5oz and 27in long!! You can slow down your growing buddy, Mommy wants to enjoy every little bit!
