Bright's Birth Announcement

Below is Bright's birth announcement. I sent one to many of you, but I thought I would share it here as well. I was thinking of doing something like this myself because I have been dabbling in digital scrapbooking, but due to my extended stay in the hospital I decided to just pay someone to make it for me. Our announcement is from Sweet Baby Designs. They do photo birth announcements like this one as well as invitations and holiday greetings. I was thrilled with the design, the service, the communication, and the finished product. It ended up being quite easy which I really needed at that time. Enjoy!

2 out of 3

I was able to spend Father's Day with two out of three super special dads in my life. Yes, I know it's Wednesday night and I'm just getting around to the post. Sorry for the delay.

We did celebrate Father's Day with Jon's dad early; he's in Turkey giving a tour right now.

Jon and my dad enjoyed part of the day by wakeboarding together, and I got to go along to snap some pictures. Jon LOVES wakeboarding. He hopes that he can still be wakeboarding when he's my dad's age.

Jon enjoyed his first Father's Day this year. I know he would say it was pretty special. In about a month, he's already become a great dad. Bright is super lucky.

Bathin' Bright

Bright loves the bath! We are having a great time with him. See all the hands helping out. Yes, he's still a rock star. His hair gets really curly too after we wash his hair. Is that normal?

And there were pants

Bright lost his umbilical cord at his early morning diaper change, so today he could wear pants. You can't see it real well in the picture, but Auntie JoJo decided his shirt needed to be tucked in. His pants are a bit big, so that meant they needed to be hiked up to his chest. Poor kid!

And yes, I know that is the ugliest binkie/pipie/pacifier. Bright is one of those kids that got hooked on the brand that the hospital gave him. I've got quite a few cool ones here at home just waiting for him. I hope that he'll adapt to those shapes when he gets a bit bigger.

Bright made his first trip out to dinner tonight and he stopped at the hardware store. We can't seem to get him to sleep now - go figure.

Jon's parents are leaving tomorrow for Turkey for a couple weeks. Doesn't that sound awesome? We have a real bath planned for Bright. Simple pleasures :)

Have a great weekend!
