Mini-Me

We've been joking that Wilson is my mini-me. The top photo is me a few days old. We didn't have a photo with quite the same expression, but you get the idea. I love it!

Here is a video from yesterday. Wilson was one month old, he is growing and changing so fast.

Here is a series of photos of Wilson on Oct. 1. I'm testing this new slideshow. My digital photo albums tend to have A LOT of photos, not all of them perfect, but I just have such a hard time deleting them.

Grandpa and Grandma Daby

Here are a few more photos of Wilson with his Grandps and Gramma Daby. My Mom, Liz, stayed with us an extra week after my Dad went home. It really was great having her.

So sad again to see grandparents go back home. They all just love him so much! He is a real heartbreaker already.

Shana and I are back on our own. Definitely feel the difference in housework and responsibility now that our grandparents backup is gone.


Wilson had his best night ever last night. Two four hour stretches of sleep, a new record! And this after a tough night for Shana. She had warned me that night that she would feed, but being Friday night, she said I was responsible for all calming and burping necessary between feedings. I was to stay in the nursery bed as necessary with him until it was feeding time. But what do you know, he didn't wake until about 3:30 for feeding, and then 8 am. I'll take that any time. And right on his Daddy's birthday, I couldn't have asked for a better present.

We have had many visitors lately. Our friend Shane Prigge from Grafton has been working in Thailand and India with the UN for the last 3 years or so. He was passing through and stayed a few days with us in Portland. Ben had to come up to visit from Crater Lake too. Annie Cooper lives here in Portland.

Everybody wants their turn to hold Wilson Scott.

Kim, Shana, and Wilson

A few more photos with Shana's Mom. My Dad, Neil, left this morning. He has been here for a week. Sad to see him go too.

It has been so wonderful having the family visiting. We are looking forward to seeing Scott and Miranda in 3 weeks. After that, Thanksgiving will probably be the next time we'll see any family.





We had Jinan and Kevin Weinhandle, our friends from St. Paul, visiting for a couple days too. The new Moms had their first night out on the town with their old college friend. And I do literally mean old. It was Jinan's 30th birthday.

Here is a video of my Mom and Dad, Shana and I, and Wilson. My Mom will be staying with us for a few more days. She is such a sweet grandma.
