Brian got us tickets to the FL-GA football game this year which was very exciting. FL-GA was on Halloween so we were of course given the task of finding a babysitter for the day. This actually turned out to be an easier task than one would think. Our fabulous neighbors offered to watch the little man for us. So Nate spent the day with Mike and Sherie while Brian and I spent the day drinking beers and enjoying the football game. This was really the first time that we (well, I) have been away from Nate for an extended period of time. I think I did pretty good. I only texted once! Although I did give lots of instructions before we left and Sherie's Dad told me if I didn't leave already that he was going to go in my place, lol. Nate seemed to have a good time and he slept for 8 hours straight that night so I told Mike and Sherie they are allowed to watch him whenever they want!! :) Nate dressed up as a spider for Halloween although we didn't do any trick-or-treating. It was late when we got back from the game and we went over to a friends house later that night so Nate could see his girlfriend. But I did put him in his costume and he sure was one cute little spider!! :)

October Updates
Shots: Nate got his first set of shots this month. Brian and I were both so proud of him. He did really well. He cried when he got them but was a real trooper after the fact. We got him some Tylenol from the Pharmacy but he didn't even need it. Such a strong little boy he is. He still has one more shot that he has to get from this set. They didn't have the Hib shot so he is going to have to go back to get that one.

7 Weeks
7 weeks old...can you believe it. Nate has come so far in his 7 weeks of life. He is so much more alert now. He is laughing and smiling. Life just gets better and better each and every week. In his 7 weeks he finally met his Aunt Jess and Uncle Kevin and little baby cousin to be. I think Nate kicked him a few times just to let him know he's the older cousin so he's the boss. He is discovering toys, still playing with his hands and is always staring at his favorite purple hippopotamus. He still doesn't sleep through the night but if he is wearing the proper sleeping outfit we usually get in a good 4-5hrs of sleep at a time. Today he had an ice cream playdate with his girlfriend, Cadence. They had a great time! I guess they will probably enjoy it more when they can actually eat the ice cream. :) We are getting so excited for the arrival home of his Daddy!! Not much longer and our little family will finally be together again! Woo hoo, we can't wait. Well, that's all for now. It's our bedtime.

Nathan's First Photo Shoot
His timing was excellent as he managed to poop/pee while we were in the middle of shooting. It was funny because we still held the poses anyways (Katelyn insisted that it wouldn't show in the pictures).
Overall, Nathan was cooperative and an excellent model. Katelyn was nice enough to provide us with some samples of her work when she got home. We can't wait to see the rest of the pictures. Thank you Katelyn!
