Last Weekend

Last weekend was a busy one for us. On Saturday morning, my college friend Lisa Swanson brought over her son Cullen to meet Harrison. The boys are 4 months apart and will be causing trouble together in no time! Saturday evening, Harrison had his first babysitters (Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Terry) so Matt and I could attend the wedding of Matt's cousin Katie. It was a beautiful day and a beautiful wedding.

Sunday, we spent the day with our friends, the Swenson's, up at Vicki's parents lake home. It was a fun day boating, jet skiing, and just relaxing. Harrison spent the majority of the afternoon napping outdoors.

Watch him grow!

Harrison entered the world on July 15th, weighing 5 lbs. 14 oz. and was 19 inches long. We bought a size "12 Month" onesie that we will put on him once a month to see how much he is growing. Above is the picture we took when he was 2 weeks old. We'll take another one next week. One sign he is growing fast...he has outgrown his preemie clothes and is now in regular new born clothes.

The first five weeks...a quick summary in pictures...

No turning back now....

Here we go...

Since our family and friends live all over, we thought we would attempt a blog to keep everyone updated on Harrison. We'll try to at least update it weekly but since Harrison is so advanced and does so many amazing things, it may be updated more often.
