First Bath

This is a bit delayed (I am much slower downloading pics I take on my actual camera vs. my phone).  Here are some pictures from Marcus's first bath.  He HATED it, I think it was a bit too wet and cold for his liking.  However, his hippo towel was adorable, especially once he calmed down a little.

Zoolander

Baby Marcus makes some great faces. I finally was able to catch one of his "Zoolander" looks in action!

Bye Bye Grandma

Grandma Monica left yesterday afternoon. Marcus and I are very sad. We loved the help (me) and the cuddles (Marcus), hopefully she can make it back out here soon!

Sick Baby

Poor Marcus. Yesterday morning we all woke up to find Marcus with an insane amount of discharge in his eyes. At the advisement of our pediatric nurse line, we took him into urgent care. After a quick but excruciating (for mom) examination, the doctor found that Marcus had a double ear infection and an eye infection.

I was a complete mess upon hearing this, it's indescribable how horrible it feels to know your kid is sick. Luckily, he has been taking his oral antibiotic and eye gel now for a full day and seems to be doing better already! The eyes are clearing up, and as for the ear infection, well, he never really cried or fussed at all, so we will assume that is clearing up as well!

Here's a picture of Marcus in the germ infested urgent care waiting room. Asleep with his hand way up in the air!

Marcus's Film Debut

Uncle Craig and Aunt Romi got creative with the footage of Marcus's hand print stamping. It is hilarious, enjoy!

Sleep Begets Sleep

At least someone in our house is sleeping...

Go Blackhawks!

Baby Marcus is already a fan of all Chicago sports.

Here he is sporting Blackhawk socks for tonight's game.
