pics of daniel with captions from chris...

since the baby was born chris has been sending out emails to his family with pics of the baby... and along with the pictures he adds captions... they are too funny and he is quite proud of them so i figured i should put them on here as well..

feb 5th: first shots of daniel:

first picture at home...

Feb 6th:

"a lot of this going on today"

"in the nursery 15 min after being born"

"chris changing the first diaper"

"mom and kid"

"mom loving kid"

"mom and dad ready to go home"

"and now.. the best shot ever... his first booger!!!"

feb 9th:

"if daniel had facebook... this is what he would post..."

"peeking out at Daddy from Mommy's lap"

"closer view"

"grandma karen giving him his first bath.. sort of... with a wash cloth"

"his pouty face! it's pretty darn cute so we don't ever take it too seriuosly..."

"and an accidental gas smile!! enjoy"

feb 10th: more daniel

well daniel had the hiccups again as i write this.  its about the 10th time today.  pretty funny.

"trying to wake up to nurse... which is going really well by the way!"

"big yawn!"

"not another diaper change! what a cruel world!"

"daddy kind of learned how to swaddle..."

"and the pouty face of the day!!"

feb 11: are you sick of him yet?

here are today's pictures.  mom and baby are currently sleeping and all is calm and well over here.

"look at his skinny legs!"

"pouty face of the day"

"with grandma slade"

"calm, alert, and awake!"

"and sleeping on mommy"

feb 12th: got some good ones!

"where's the gym?"

"our little ape man"

"tummy time!"

"i love you this much!"

"what?! daddy is a dentist??"

feb 15th: daniel's back!!

marilyn sent this picture to me during a tough day at school with the following phrase..

"sup dad... we chillin"

(it made my day to say the least!)

"for any of you who are fans of the show "Psych" like we are.  our baby is having a vision..."

"play dead!"

"just hanging with mom"

"hello world!"

feb 18th: daniel fix

"in a food coma and getting burped.. or getting a haircut??"

"my little man standing tall!"

"babies are so flexible!"

"that's where babies come from?!"

so it went like this: marilyn has deep, small, hard to find veins that gave all the doctors fits.  check out this gem of medieval torture:

"the last shot of marilyn as the doors close on her pregnancy"

"chris, not so patiently waiting, while the anesthesiologist tries 7 times to do a spinal block on poor marilyn! (and last pre-daniel picture)"

"the weigh-in for the light weight division"

feb 25th: daniel had visitors!

"bring on the visitors!"

"my family! cousins!"

"please, please, no paparazzi photos"

with "uncle daddy" and stevie

best attempt at getting a picture with grandma and three uncooperative kids:

all tuckered out after all the excitement!

thank you chris for those first emails letting everyone know what was going on... and for making the emails more fun and exciting with your witty captions :)  love it!
