Our first family of 3 hike!
We went out to Masabesic on Sunday. What a perfect fall day for a little hike. We loaded ourselves up in the car and hit the road. Once we got there, we put Oliver into the Moby wrap and started down the trail. Travis took some fantastic pictures of our adventure too!
First Cold
Well, Oliver has gotten his first cold. Thanks to Mommy and maybe daddy :( Brought him to the docs yesterday because his cough was so bad on Sunday night, that he was having a hard time breathing. He's fine and much better today :)
Bonus, we found out that he weighs in at 11lbs 2oz!! He's growing so quickly!

Less than 1 week old!
He is a freaking power nurser. When we left the hospital on Tuesday, he weighed in at 8lbs 4oz. He had a doc appointment yesterday, and he weighed in at 8lbs 7oz! He gained 3oz in 1 day at less than a week old! I have a feeling this little guy is going to grow like a weed!
Trav and I have both been peed on. And I've been pooped on lol. Little boys are great! I love all the little noises he makes. And all the faces! Oh man!! He's sooooooooooo facially expressive!
I didn't realize how much more I could fall in love with him and Travis, but each day, I love them both more and more <3

Oliver Travis Dustin has arrived
No time to write out the ridiculously long birth story right now, but I've got time to share some pictures!

8:30 - 8/11 - Water broke
Completely thought I peed my pants. Told Trav I needed to take a shower because I had. Went to get some pjs to change into and had another gush! I yelled to him "Babe, I need a towel! My water just broke!" Couldn't believe it. I didn't think it would happen, because it only breaks for 10% of women.
