Sedona trip

We drove up to Sedona today, hoping to visit the spot where we got married. Ended up getting hung up on a route through Prescott and got to Sedona later than we would have liked. It was very windy and very cool anyway for Garrett. We had to hurry up and take the photo of us at Bell Rock 'cause it was pretty chilly. Didn't have much time to tweak things for the "perfect" photo.

Anyway, enjoy...

Garrett's Smile

It's not the full blown, completely squinted gum showing smile that makes Liz cry, but it's close

Luke Days 2009 - Airshow

Garrett was great today at the airshow. It took us more than 3 hours to go from one mile away from the base to inside the base (2 hours standing in line). So we're very tired and a little burnt despite applying plenty of sun block. Garrett was perfect. The afterburners on the F-22 didn't phase him at all. We got inside just as the F-22 was taking off...really the inspiration for us standing in line that long. Once we saw it take off and do it's thing we got something to eat, cooled off, walked around for maybe a half an hour and went home. Yeah, we were probably there for half the time it took us to get in. All the frustrations on getting in took the enjoyment of the show out of us. But at least I got to see the new F-22 fly.


Hopefully the next time we go (he'll be 2 years old) he'll be just as perfect as he was today. Next time I'll get a shot of him sitting in a fighter.

Garrett's doctor's appointment

Hello Everyone!

Today Garrett had his 1 month doctors appointment. He is now 10 pounds 12 ounces and 23 inches long. His bump on his head from birth is completely gone. Garrett had his second hepititus shot and I feed him while she gave it to him. He was a little trooper (he loves to eat). Doctor said he is very alert and she can't believe how long his arms are :)He has gained 2 pounds since birth.
He is now doing tummy time and has a very strong neck already. It's been great to watch him change everyday. Thanks to everyone for keeping up on Garretts growth.
We love all the comments.

Love,
Liz

Tummy time

March 17, 2009

Garrett has lots of fussies tonight. This was one of the few times he was settled down.

A video from earlier today.

Video and some pics

1 month old

Garrett smiled big time today. Looked right into my eyes and gave a huge, very long grin. I tried to get him on video later doing it, but couldn't. He is getting a very big waist. It's funny. Here is some video from the other day.

Friday the 13th

I pulled in the driveway after work and Myron was there to greet me. Right next to my truck door he's rolling in the dirt like a dog. As usual, he'll meow and follow me inside, but this time I left him out. After about 30 min. he was howling wanting inside. So we picked him up, brought him in and gave him a bath right in the laundry sink. Here he is drying off.

And here is what Garrett was doing while we bathed Myron.

Attached to Mommy

Garrett had a hard time being detached from Mommy today.

Notice his "bump" has gone way down...almost gone completely.

Already on the phone

More Garrett photos

Day #20

I was trying to show a little motion with his swing by doing a time exposure, then a flash...in theory it was cool!

Another Garrett movie

Shot the other day. He's wearing one of my favorite outfits...his "Mr. Fix It" outfit.

Some more Garrett...

Taken today in his boppy


In his car seat in the back of my truck. The mirror works really good!


This is how most nights are spent. Garrett doesn't want to be alone after Daddy comes home.

By request, a Garrett movie

I'll try to get some of him moving around. I think I have some that is pretty funny. Thought I'd post this at least first.

Day #13

Day #12

First official outing

We decided to go out to eat tonight at Chili's and make a run to the store with Garrett. He was very good! Slept the entire time. He was cracking us up the way he was sleeping.

Some more pictures

Mommy, Garrett, and the Myron kitty

Curious Garrett

A movie of him from yesterday. Liz was trying to sleep and Garrett was wide awake.

We're going to bath him now for the first time.
