Sixth Day- A Day of Firsts

No morning would be complete without some mommy and daddy snuggle time! These were taken a few hours apart when Linc and I took turns getting up for diaper changes. Unfortunately, when Linc gets up so do I but at least we're able to capture these precious moments. Don't worry- we were both (semi) awake during these snuggle sessions and we have never let Carter sleep with us in bed even though we would love to!

I just love him so much (and he smells so good!)

My favorite boys

After letting us sleep in until 10:30 am, Carter meet his Auntie Alex on Thursday (March 11th). She had been with us the entire time in the hospital during labor, but unfortunately around 4am realized she was pretty sick and did not get to hold him once he finally made his debut. She is finally feeling better and was able to come up to our house and spend some quality time with her nephew. I felt so bad that it took so long for her to officially meet him, but I am sure they'll have plenty of opportunities to make up for lost time!

Hattie's ready for the hand off!

She's a natural!

He loves being snuggled!

Hello gorgeous boy! Is that a semi smile I see?

Another first on the sixth day was that Carter got a bath! He was surprisingly quiet during the entire thing. I was certain he would scream his head off but he really seemed to enjoy the warm water and scalp massage!

Breaking in his new duckie towel from Hattie!

The first pour seemed to put him right to sleep!

Lathering up!

Mommy and Daddy make a great team!

Almost done!

Baby Mohawk!


All clean and ready for a nap!

My baby is counting down to his 13th birthday. Don't know where the time has gone. Enjoy every snuggle moment!

I love these pictures! And in the first line of your post, when I read "mommy and daddy snuggle time," I thought that meant you and Lincoln snuggling each other, and I was like, "Wow! You go!"

He is precious! I hope you're feeling rested enough today.

There is nothing like the smell of a baby. I almost took one of the hospital blankets to bring it home with me:)
Looks like he didn't even mind the hair wash.
I thought he looked so much like Linc when he was born, but now that he's growing I see alot of you, in his eyes especially. Great teamwork you two! See you soon<3
