Nate Finds a Friend

Nate found a buddy who is just his size.

Nate says, "Awww mom, you are such a pain."

Our Hungry Hippo

Our hungry hippo had a doctor's appointment yesterday and weighs 8 pounds, 4 ounces. Considering he was 6 pounds, 7 ounces a little over a week ago, it appears he is eating well! He is also 20.5 inches. He is a strong little boy, especially when he is mad. He kicks his little legs and punches like a maniac. It looks like he is going to have quite the temper... I wonder where he got that from?! Below is a picture of him lifting his head and looking at daddy. He held his head like that for a good 30 seconds. Like any doting parents, we were very impressed!


Here is a picture of Nate...he is sleeping at this very moment! He is tuckered out from his late night of drinking (milk, of course) and partying with mom.

Our Little Pumpkin..

will be two weeks old tomorrow! He is such a good baby (I hope I am not jinxing anything by saying that!) and we are so totally in love with him. He had his first trip to the pumpkin patch last weekend with mimi (my mom) and auntie Courtney and auntie Heather, who were up visiting for the weekend. He slept through the entire excursion. Better luck next year.



Nate likes: Eating, peeing on mom and dad, pulling mom's hair, sucking on everything, warm baths, and staying up all night

Nate dislikes: Being made to wait to eat, having his diaper changed, and of course, sleeping at night

Mike jokes that every day (and night!) is like a battle, us against Nate. So far we have survived 13 days of battle. He's worth it though!

Baby Nate Has Arrived!

Okay Caitlin, go ahead and let out that sigh of relief. Nate is not going to steal your birthday...though he now is the true baby of the family!

Hi everyone, this is Auntie Heather. I feel so lucky to be the guest blogger today to introduce you all to Baby Nate!

Nathan Cooper Lederman was born today, October 2nd at 11:51 am!!!

He weighs 6 lbs, 12 oz and is 19.25" long.

He is healthy and beautiful (though I haven't seen him yet). His new mommy and daddy are ecstatic and doing wonderfully.

Love you Dani and Mike! I can't wait to see this little fellow in real life :D
