Tummy Time

Jack spends some time each day on his tummy to help build his muscles. He is getting really good at holding his head up when we burp him and he loves to push off with his feet to move across the blanket.

Big Boy Bath

Jack really enjoyed his first bath since his umbilical cord fell off. Warm water and the attention of both his parents were just what he needed. I took his diaper off a little too soon before the warm water was ready so he let me know he was cold as only little boys can.

Proud Grandparents

Jack's first visitors at the house were both sets of grandparents. They couldn't take their eyes off his cute little face. What a lucky grandbaby!

Daddy's Little Man

Kevin and Jack settle in to practice the art of napping at the hospital. Jack is a pro once he gets swaddled up and his hat on.

John Patrick Flavin Has Arrived!

Our little bundle of joy arrived on October 3rd at 1:53 am. The labor and delivery was amazingly quick, laboring for only 10 hours. He weighed 7 pounds, 8 ounces and was 20 and a 1/4 inches.

9 Months!

At this point in the pregnancy I discovered there are about only two things you can do to get by day to day, laugh or cry. Here we are at 9 months or 38 weeks. Two more weeks until our due date of October 1st. I keep telling him he can come early but no such luck. I even told him about all the toys he has waiting for him to play with, but still nothing.

I am definitely ready to begin the next phase of this adventure.

Crib TIme

Kevin easily handles the assembly of the crib. It was given to us by Carter and Kristina Belvin. This was the final "big" thing we needed to feel like we are ready for Jack to come. The big halls and doorways in our house made it easy to assemble in the living room and just roll it down to his room.
