There's a First Time for Everything

Lots of firsts for Karter yesterday - on Friday:

  • First Doctor's Visit = Karter visited the doctor for the first time back at the hospital for his 2-day check up. Weight-wise, he is now at 8 lbs., 11 oz. He dipped to 8 lbs., 7 oz. on Wednesday when we left the hospital. He is healthy and growing.
  • First Visit to the World's Greatest Retail Establishment = Mommy and Grandma Vicky took Karter to the Target in Hastings (T-1245 as it's called at TGT). Of course, he loved it!
  • First Daddy Feeding = Daddy woke up in the middle of the night. In order to let Mommy get a little rest, Daddy fed Karter for the first time from the bottle. This allowed Dana to at least get a little sleep.
  • First Walk Around Hampton = In celebration of 4th Annual Hampton Days, we took a walk around town. Karter was mostly uninterested (sleepyness + the lack of fun at the event itself).
  • First Visitors = Mommy and Daddy's friends, Johann and Sherry Sonnenberg, visited. They were very gracious, bringing supper along with them. It was great to visit with them and let them see Karter.

Karter is sleeping pretty well at night. Night one, he woke us up around 8 times. Night two, about 5 times. Last night, only 4 times! He sleeps pretty well at night, but obviously, he's not on a schedule yet.

Grandma Terry and Grandpa Kim are coming up tomorrow night. They should be here around midnight or so...it will be great to see them! Grandma Vicky is going home tomorrow, too. She has been a fantastic help for us this week. Tomorrow - Karter's first trip to church!

That little babe is getting so much love! I bet Rascal Bobascal is so darn jealous...as he should be;)

By the way, M. Night's new movie "The Happening" is a must-see. Check it out!
