Being at home is fun

It's so comfortable being home with mommy and daddy.  I am getting acclimated with all the wonderful clothes and gear that we now have.

This chair is my favorite.  After a few restless nights, mommy and daddy realized that I prefer to go to sleep in my vibrating blue chair with the sleep sheep making calming sounds.

Once I get in that seat, its easy for me to take a soothing nap:

Yesterday (March 30th) was my one week birthday at 2:37pm.  Mommy and I celebrated by taking a team nap.  We both needed it.   

Colton's Big Week

 

Its been a very busy week.  On Thursday March 22nd, I was swishing around in Mommy's pregnant belly and enjoying the spring weather.  Then on Friday, I appeared to reward Mommy for all her hard work and gave Daddy the best birthday present he could ever ask for.

 Since then, I have been on the social circuit in the hospital meeting all my peeps. 

It's been so much fun.  I enjoy being swaddled, rocked and held. My happy hands are my favorite toy.  I enjoy flailing them around to see what they can do.  Sometimes, I even stick them in my mouth.

The last five days in the hospital have been very productive, but Mommy, Daddy and me are ready to bust out of this joint.  

On Wednesday, the 27th we finally got to hop in the car and drive home.  I'm looking forward to all the new adventures at home and meeting everyone else. 

Here I am!

Hi everybody. It's took an "out of body" experience for me to get here. And boy, was it tiring. I was named Colton Joseph McConaghy upon my arrival at 2:37pm. I weighed in 7 lbs and am 18.5 inches long. After my birth, I got all cleaned up and the nurses shampooed my flo to show off my beautiful brown hair. Excuse me while I nap now. I'm tired. Pictures to follow.

Tatiana's Birthday Celebration!

My cousin Tatiana had her second birthday and celebrated with a fun party at Kidz World. Everyone had a great time bouncing, running, sliding and playing. Tatiana worked up an appetite and dug into her cake.

Auntie Kathie had a great time partaking in the festivities. Here she is with my cousins Elena and Joey. I can't wait to meet all of them soon!

What a cute group of kids! Only a couple more weeks and I'll be able to join my cousins for birthday parties and play dates. Its going to be so much fun.

Babymoon

Mommy and Daddy felt the need to get away for a little rest and relaxation prior to my arrival.

Apparently mommy has the foresight to see into the future and recognize that there won't be much downtime once I come to town.

We went to the Doctors yesterday for my 37th week appointment.  My heart rate is strong and the doctor said that I am already around 6 lbs and 8 ozs.  (Sorry, papa there's no changing your baby pool weight guess).
