Nathan

Nathan was very alert today.  After Tummy Time, we got some use on his Boppy:

Nathan was alert for quite a while yesterday afternoon.  Here is he snuggling with Dad:

Every day, we try to get in some Tummy Time.  Nathan doesn’t like it so much:

He sat up in his Boppy for a long time, just looking around:

Now that Nathan is settling in at home, we’ve been watching a lot of sports.  Here’s Nathan and dad watching a Brewers game:

Apparently, Nathan doesn’t find baseball exciting enough to stay awake:

Here’s Nathan waking up from one his naps.  Right now, his eyes are blue, but they may eventually change color:

Nathan’s First Weekend at Home

Nathan spent his first weekend at home.  The Grandma’s came over on Saturday to visit.  And Saturday night, Nathan watched his first Packers game with his dad.  I should say Nathan slept through his first Packers game with his dad:

Here’s Nathan enjoying his swing:

We were discharged from the hospital this afternoon after a two-day stay.  Here’s a picture of Nathan on our way home:

We are settling in at home.  Oliver and Heisman were a little spooked at first, but are slowly adjusting.  Here’s Heisman inspecting the newest addition to the Robbins’ Family:

Nathan likes to sleep with his hands near his head.  We call this sleeping position ‘The Pope’:

Only 2 Weeks Until D-Day!

Melissa’s due date is getting closer and the parents-to-be are getting more and more excited!  At her doctor’s appointment on Monday, the doctor listened to the baby’s heartbeat, which registered in the upper 140’s and lower 150’s.

Here are a couple of pictures of Melissa at 38 weeks:
