Carter is 3 weeks old!

We went to the doctor's today and Carter weighs 8lbs. 7 oz. He has almost gained a whole pound since he was born.
Carter loves his new baby bouncer.
Carter is really strong. When he is awake his fists are usually clenched tight and its hard to open up his hands. I wanted to see if he would hold onto a rattle so I opened his fingers and put this little rattle in his hand. He held onto it and even shook it around. I don't think he did that on purpose but I can pretend.
Yesterday Logan and I saw Carter smile for the first time. It was a real smile.
I just love our little baby so much. This was him today about to fall asleep.
Carter loves his pacifier (is that a good or bad thing? I'm really not sure).

Cute! I think the liking of the pacifier is a REALLY good thing. But, Hey! I'm not a mom, so.... I love his dark eyes!

Coming from a baby nurse binkies are the BEST don't let anyone else tell you other wise. However, if it is making the nursing harder than definately not a good thing. Anyways, it will save your life many times. He is beautiful congrats!!!

Your baby is beautiful! Love the pictures. Pacifiers are a great thing! My girls loved their pacifiers. It is actually pretty easy to get rid of pacifiers. I just took pacifiers away from my little girl who is turning one a few weeks ago. I am so happy for you guys! He is so sweet!

Congratulations! You are going to make such awesome parents. He is such an angel and looks so precious. My little boy just turned one. Take advantage of every minute because they really do grow up fast.
