The first two weeks have come and gone, my parents were a great help while they were here for a week, then Caleb and I got to fly solo for most of the next week. The first week we spent most of our time resting and watching sports on TV, between the World Cup Soccer games and the OSU Beavers making it to and winning the college world series. We have been out a couple of times to Doug's soccer games, a couple of stores and restaurants, some barbeque parties and our least favorite, trips to the doctors. We have also been putting the miles on the stroller, since walking is about all that I am able to do for a while. I am looking forward to the magic 4 week mark when I can go swimming or at least get in the water again. Doug and Caleb took one trip in the not so hot hot tub, Caleb only up to his thighs, but a good start. Here are a couple more photos for those of you who are checking and thank you for all the great comments.
I only got my legs wet, and as you can tell I was too tired to care
My vibrating bouncy chair, which I spend quite a bit of time in, mostly sleeping.
Caleb is now over a month old, wow how time flies. The weather has been hot, and we have been doing the usual (soccer games and long walks in the stroller) Once 4 weeks past, I was able to go swimming, so we took Caleb in the (cool) hot tub for his first swim, which he liked much more than his bath time in a tiny tub. Caleb weighed in at 9 lbs 12 oz on tuesday, so he is probably close to or over 10 lbs at this point and changing every day. He has started to pay attention to toys a little, and is seeing new things every day, it is fun to watch him and his expressions as his tiny world gets bigger by the day. Next weekend we will be making our first trip away from home, Doug has a soccer tournament in Vail, so we will be making the 4 hour drive and staying in a hotel for the first time since Caleb's arrival (should be interesting). If all goes well, we might try a small camping trip in a couple weeks.
