Week One Done, Week Two, here we come

Well, this is coming a bit later than expected, but as they say, better late than never.

The last week has just flown by for Ethan, Jon and me as we are learning to get along as a family of 3 (humans that is) and 8 animals (not counting the fish). We have been getting out at least once a day, going to Lowes, or Target, or the grocery store.


Ethan also had his first bath last weekend, and while he was not overly thrilled the first time, he really LOVES them now. He likes to relax and soak in the Milk soak that his Grandma got him.

Other firsts this week? Well, my almost 2 week old baby can roll over!! What a trick. I am attaching a video of him doing it, but it a little dark. We will work on getting one again that is more light in color.

Other than that, I am still pleased to report that Ethan is a SLEEPER. He lets us sleep from about 7 until about 1:30 in the morning, eats, and then sleeps again until about 6:00. We could not ask for more....especially since the Tour De France is on nice and early so Dad gets to watch it!

Have a great week, and more this weekend!

Ethan at 15 Hours Old

Hello World!!

After 6 hours of labor, we were so blessed to welcome Ethan Alexander Bialis to the world at 7 lbs 6 ounces and 19.25 inches long. This is his first video, taken the morning after birth in the hospital. It is AMAZING how beautiful he is, and perfect, and oh yeah, I guess I am a little biased!

Happy 4th of July Everyone!

Well, it is the fourth of July, and still no appearance of the little one. Ethan is very active, kicking and wiggling, but still not ready to come out. Jon and I are just spending time this weekend getting some more things ready. The car seats have all been installed into the cars, the crib is all ready to go, and the bags are packed. Now, it is a waiting game....a long one at that!!

Thanks to everyone who has been so supportive and asking how things are going. Check back next time to see pictures of Ethan as soon as he decides to make an appearance!
