Like Father... Like Son

For those of you who know Ben, you know that he is quite chatty. It looks like his son is going to follow in his footsteps.

What a Big Boy!

Little Wesley wanted to show what a big boy he is already. He wanted to help daddy hold his bottle. :)

Sleepy Kitty, Sleepy Boy

Mittens has started to warm up to the idea of having Wes around. She was NOT HAPPY when we brought him home. She was outwardly depressed and wanted nothing to do with me. I think she finally kind of missed me today and decided that she would try to lay next to me even though Wes was on my lap.

FUNNY FACT: Wes has around 15 more pounds to gain before he weighs the same as her... She is one big girl.

Game Day

Per Daddy's request, Wesley is sporting Michigan State attire today. Daddy and son are going to watch the MSU vs. Kansas game tonight. Wes really wants to try to stay up for the game, so he plans to get plenty of rest this afternoon. :)

Mommy & Me

Wes and I decided to have a mommy & son photo shoot the other day after I realized that I am not in many photos with him (since I am the one usually running the camera). Good thing our camera came with a remote. It worked out pretty well and I think that we may try this again. :)

One Month Old

Yikes! I can't believe one month has gone by already. Ben and I can't believe how much he is changing. We are trying to cherish each day, because we don't want to take these precious moments for granted.

The Many Faces of Wes

I was trying to get some good pictures of Wes the other day and was having some trouble. He decided that it would be funny to make mom sit there and take a gazillion pictures while he made funny faces. Maybe these will brighten your day. Enjoy!

Three Weeks Old

Wes is now three weeks old. At our doctor's appointment on Friday he weighed in at 7 lbs. 7 oz. and measures 21.5 in. long. (Also, his cold is almost gone now and he is basically just left with a cough.)

We decided that Wes would probably enjoy a swing, so we picked him up one. He seems to love it. Check him out below chilling in his new favorite place.
