3 weeks old and Father's Day!

My sweet baby boy was 3 weeks old on Friday. I cannot believe how big he has gotten in just a few weeks. He is starting to hold his little head up. Chris and I have been extremely lucky so far because Brody has been sleeping from 11pm-5am everynight. We know were lucky and figure that as soon as Nana (my momma) leaves he is gonna stop sleeping through the night for us!  His favorite thing to do is snuggle with you! This past week our family friend Pam from Houston came to see Brody for a few days and enjoyed loving on him and seeing Pittsburgh. Below are a couple of pictures from the last week:

Brody's first time in the tub!

Today we are celebrating Chris's first Father's Day. Brody and I took him out to breakfast at Bob Evans and then to church. It was Brody's first service at South Hills Bible Chapel. He got a little fussy durning the service so we watched the rest of it from the lobby. Honestly he barely made any noise I just think I was nervous! As we celebrate Father's day I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful daddy and a great father-in-law. Brody is not only lucky to have an awesome daddy but also an awesome Papa BOE and Grandpap!

I know all of you are wondering why it took me over a week to write this post and I have had several text messages and emails asking for pictures but the reason is we just got Internet at our house. We have been "stealing" Internet from the neighbors since we moved in but the connection was too slow for me to post pictures so below are several pictures of our baby boy from his first week of life.

We have been so blessed with great parents who have helped us out this first week. There is no way I could have made it without my moms, Margaret and Elisa because unfortunately as my luck would have it I caught an infection at the hospital so I have been on antibiotics fighting that while dealing with a newborn.  Our brothers and dads have been so great and are already taking about Brody playing sports! I have come to realize that every hour or of everyday is a new adventure with Brody. When he starts to cry something that may have soothed him yesterday is not what he wants today so he is already teaching me that momma is not in control! If your wondering, he already has his dad and I wrapped around his finger. Chris and I constantly just want to stare at our beautiful baby boy. OK I will stop gushing about how much I'm in love, I think Ive made that point. Below is a video that "Uncle Matt" made of some photos taken right after Brody was born at the hospital.
