SEVEN WEEKS OLD

To all of our family with love. I filmed this after changing his diaper, so he was pretty content.

Daniel use to post things on our blog but now I will be doing it. Our son Danny is 7 weeks old!!! he is growing so fast. Everyday he changes, but he is always a sweet baby. We are so happy to be parents. I love being a mom, I m so happy with my life and with my little family. I m so glad I was part of bringing him to this world. Danny is just so adorable, he smiles a lot more, and sometimes he giggles! There are a lot of babies in my ward that were born close to our son's due date and they are all smaller than he is! we love him so much. He still has a lot of hair, everyone keeps telling me that it is all going to fall off, but so far, only a little has come off, so I guess we will have to see! Well, so far, he sleeps about 2-3 hours at a time during the day, and after midnight, 4 hours. So it isn't much but I m getting use to it, sometimes while I m giving him the bottle I fall asleep and when I wake up, he is looking up at me with a sad face, and his bottle is by his ear and the milk is going down his neck!! I feel so bad but it has only happened twice...., and yes he has shot his pee at me while I m changing his diaper, but only at the beginning, now I think I m getting the hang of it, or maybe it's just luck. Well, this was just a little update, but I will try to keep posting often!

The first thing Daddy does when he comes home is tell his son how much he loves him and gives Danny a big hug. This is also nice for mom since she sometimes doesn't get to take as many breaks during the day as she might like.

Grandma was so happy to come and finally meet her first grandson. This is such a good picture!!! He obviously loves being held by his grandma.

We still are unsure what is going to happen to his hair! When we give him a bath and wash it, it is real straight, but then when it dries, this is how it looks. We both would love for him to have curly hair, even though he would hate it later on. I mean come on, chicks dig a guy with curly hair, right?

Look at how big his feet are!!! Don't let this photo fool you, he is not a fan of being put in his car seat! However, once we start driving he is just fine.

WOW!!! Three weeks after having the baby and she looks great!! This was sat b4 we blessed the Daniel. He loves being held by his mommy.

This is right after sacrament mtg when we blessed the baby. One of the family friends of the Villars came to be there for us as well. As a side note, Blake at the top left served his mission in Peru and met the Villars while they were living there.

Boy, when he gets a bath he is a handfull, but when mommy washes his hair and then puts him in the towel, he is as content as can be.

This is when mom came for the weekend we blessed Danny. She brought a swingy chair for us to set him in and he loves it!!!

This is obviously where little danny chills most of the time. Either there or in our room. He loves to sleep on his tummy, he almost instantly goes to sleep after being fed when we lay him in this position.

This is after his first bath at home. He LOVES to have his hair washed. Everything else he hates and boy does he let us know!!!! What a little cuttie.

In just a week he opens his eyes and looks around all the time. Sometimes if you are lucky, he'll look you straight in the eye...it pierces deep when he does.

This was this past wed. when we took him to the Docter for the first time. He hates getting put into the car seat but once he is there, well...pictures speak a thousand words.

This was his little bed while we were in the hospital. We were there all Sat and Sunday and left in the middle of the afternoon on monday.

Isn't he the cutest thing that you've ever seen?! He smiled on his first day here with us. Now, he smiles a lot bigger and all you can see are his gums, he is so precious.

First time grandparents....First time glimpse at how the family can grow.

He loves to suck on his hand... no finger in particular, just the whole thing!

This is when I got to actually hold my son for the first time without them needing him back every 5 secs. He was so calm once they got him in the blanket with his little hat on.

This is Jess and I right after they washed and cleaned Danny. Even after labor, Jess still looks as beautiful as ever!!
