Baby Nathan One Week Old Video

This is a video my dad made for me for my one week old birthday on Tuesday.

I can't believe it!

Today Nathan had his one week old birthday. We had to go to the doctor for his weigh in. Nathan was a trooper and just laid there looking around the whole time and did not fuss. When we left the hospital he had lost 5 ounces, but today he weighed in at 6lbs 13oz. That means that he gained 10 ounces in 5 days. He is still a small baby though. They said that he is in the 14th percent for weight, 43rd percent for length and a whopping 2nd percent for his head. So, yeah, he's still small. He is strong though, he can hold his head up to check things out.
I just can't believe it has been a week already! He is such a good baby. He sleeps so good during the night so his mom and dad can sleep. And he is just so much fun to watch. He makes the cutest little facial expressions ever.
We find ourselves falling even more in love with him every passing day!

More Nathan...

Some of you might get tired seeing all these pictures of Nathan, but we don't care! He is just too cute and we want everyone to know.

Here at last!

World, meet Nathan Lance Rygmyr! The newest addition arrived in our family on November 25, at 7:35 pm. He weighed in at 6 lbs 8oz and was 18 and 1/4 inches long. He is a healthy happy baby, and mom and dad couldn't be happier!

Nathan's room

David and I worked on the mural in Nathan's room on Monday, and I just finished it up today. I am so happy about how it turned out. I will post pictures of the whole room when I get things moved into their proper place. Until then, enjoy these pictures.

To all the non-believers...

It is done. David took last week off to stay home and work on some projects. Well, one project really, the arcade. Who knew that David and I had such great wood working skills (look out Bob Villa!). It took us the whole week and here are some pictures of it along the way.

All we have left to do is get some awesome graphics for the sides. Here is a picture of the finished product and David and his friends playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Just so you know we beat the game in one try.

34 weeks

Yesterday, was our 34 week mark and the doctor said everything is looking good. We scheduled the appointment for them to take out the stitches, it is on Nov. 5th. We are so excited knowing that we could have little Nathan here sooner than later.

One more thing, it has nothing to do with this but I also didn't think it deserved it's own post. I am so happy about the price of gas right now! After having our gas shortage I thought for sure that gas stations would raise the prices once they finally had fuel to make up for the money they lost. But with the price of a barrel being so low we paid $2.62 for gas yesterday! How awesome is that!

Oh yeah, we also voted yesterday, and since I am pregnant we got to bypass the 2 1/2 hour long line and go straight in and cast our ballots! Don't forget to vote- it's your voice!
