Bath time for Jerald

Here is Jerald borrowing one of Seth's bath towels.

After the Wedding

Seth was a little tired after all of the excitement of the wedding.

Matt & Virginie's Wedding

We had a fantastic time celebrating Matt & Virginie's wedding. It was so wonderful to get to spend time with our law school friends. And Seth was an absolute angel at the wedding, no complaints from us!

Jerald did a wonderful job as best man. When he was giving his toast Seth kept looking around with a confused look on his face. He heard Daddy but didn't know where he was.

Here are some other pictures of the wedding. Hopefully Nicole and Cat will email us their pictures soon so we can share them.

Rehearsal Dinner

We headed down to the Cape this weekend for Matt's wedding (our good friend from law school). Friday night we had the rehearsal dinner. We were a little worried about how Seth would handle the wedding the next day because for the first hour and a half of the rehearsal dinner he cried. But Jerald, in his never ending genius, got Seth to sleep through dinner across his lap. It looks kind of weird - but Seth seemed happy and his parents both got to eat dinner!










This is a picture of the little bed Seth slept in at the hotel. Snug as a bug!

3 Months Old!

Seth has changed a lot in his first three months of life. He now smiles a lot, he laughs, is awake a good portion of the day, is starting to play with some toys, puts his hands in his mouth and is sleeping much better at night. And has gotten cuter every day!

Another trip to the pool

where Seth did not actually make it into the pool. He ended up sleeping in Lauren's arms. But he did look very cute in his pool outfit!

Mailbox

This was the view from our window the other day. The world we live in is just crazy!

Mobile

So we are trying to work with video now. We will get some more interesting shots up soon with better quality. This is merely a test run.

Hospital Outfit

It seems that Seth has grown out of his outfit that we brought him home from the hospital in. What do you think? Also he seems to have mellowed out a bit in his first 12 weeks of life!

Bare

This was just too cute not to post. Of course Seth will be very mad later in life for this picture - but too bad we are his parents!!!

Seth Found His Hand!

They are no longer these things that randomly hit Seth in the head and wake him up when he sleeps. His hands are now wonderful things to suck and chew on. Oh the joy!

Grandma/Mom Visit

We had a great visit from Grandma (Lauren's Mom). She couldn't believe how big Seth has gotten. She loves him so much she doesn't even mind his constant spit-up. Although, she does call him "The Volcano."

Here are her pictures from the visit.

Mommy & Me Group

Today ended Lauren & Seth's first Mommy and Me group. We started when Seth was just six weeks old. He has come such a long way... The night before the first group he slept 4 hours in his car seat on the floor of our bedroom. And we were actually happy with that. Now he sleeps for 5-7 hours in his crib in his own room. And then goes back to sleep for 2-3 more hours. He now smiles and laughs and is awake to play instead of just crying or eating.

The group has been such a wonderful outlet for Lauren. She has met some wonderful Moms & Babies and hope to continue these great relationships for years to come.

Aunt Naomi

We had a great time when Aunt Naomi (Jerald's sister) came over for a visit. How cute is Seth sitting on the couch watching TV???

Anne & Will's Wedding

Today we went to Anne & Will's Wedding. Anne is one of Jerald's good friends from college. It was a beautiful ceremony in the Church at Harvard. And then a reception at the Harvard Club. This was a big outing for us without Seth. We missed the little guy but had fun drinking, dancing, and eating slowly for the first time in months. We usually have to eat so fast to take care of Seth.

As you can see below Seth had a wonderful time hanging out and sleeping on Nana. Nana - thanks for all the baby sitting that you have already done and for all that will occur in the future!!!

Pool Party

Some of Lauren's friends from college came over for a pool party. Vicky & Dana brought the absolute cutest cupcakes (they were yummy too!).




After the pool Vicky, Jill and Seth had a lovely story time.



There are no pictures of Seth in the pool because Lauren dangled his little feet in and he started screaming. Oh well... we still had a great day!

Vicky Visits!!!

One of Lauren's best friends from college, Vicky, came to Boston for the weekend. Vicky got to spend some quality time with Seth. We must say Seth just loved Vicky - she is a natural with babies! Now that Vicky and her husband are living in New Jersey we hope to see them much more often.


When Vicky first was going to hold Seth, Lauren gave her a burp pad. For those of you who have met Seth in person you are well aware of our little Volcano. Seth takes after his father (when he was a baby) in that he spits up all the time. When Vicky saw all the pictures of Seth with everyone having burp clothes on them she thought that we were just overly hygienic ~ nope we are just trying to not change our t-shirts a hundred times a day.

Back up - for now

So our computer is not yet fixed but we felt like we had a mounting mutiny on our hands so we have made provisions to get the blog updated... we have some great pictures from the last couple of weeks so we will back date them to keep it all straight.


Here is a picture of Seth on his new changing table in his cute muscle shirt!

Technical Difficulties

Our computer has been broken for the last couple of days. We are working hard to get it running again. So there will be no new pictures for a little while.

Sorry!

But we are all doing well. Seth actually slept in his own room in his crib for the last two nights. What a big boy!!!

Seth's First Seat

Here is Seth sitting in his first chair the Bumbo (which some of his Aunts and Uncles got for him). Don't you especially like Seth's use of the arm rest?

New Furniture

We just got Seth's furniture in. Doesn't he look happy already in his new crib? We are still putting his room together and will post pictures when it is complete. We hope Seth will make the big move to his own room in the next couple of weeks.

Katherine & Murray

Today we had a fantastic visit with our friends from law school Katherine and Murray. Seth was happy to meet them and we can't wait to see them in a few short weeks on the cape!
