Outings

From Random Thoughts

We had our first over several outings this weekend, minus the trip home from the hospital. Unfortunately, no pictures this time.

Our friend Dan came in to town from Minneapolis to see Evan and hang out with his family who live in Iowa. Evan was not phased by the car ride, lunch at Zio's, a quick trip to First National Bank and a stop at Best Buy to be an external hard drive to store all the new and future photos.

Liz's mother and sister, Joy and Ally (Grandma and Aunt), spent the better part of yesterday with us and took Evan in the stroller around the neighborhood. He was very well behaved and awake a majority of the time. Joy told me she was providing commentary on the route and explaining the colors of the houses and the view to him. Mark (Uncle), Ally's husband, stopped by for a while in between meetings for work and had lunch with Evan.

Last night, Dr. and Mrs. J. Chris Bradberry hosted the student leaders from the School of Pharmacy and Health Professions at their home for the annual appreciation dinner. Liz and I both needed some time away from the house, so this was a great opportunity for us. Evan knew something was different as he was somewhat fussy before we left and while we were there. Overall, he did really well for being 6 days old. We are so lucky to have a great baby and everyone was excited we came with Evan.

There will be more pictures to come as we take more and get them off the camera. Evan will be a week old tonight. His first bath at home is also coming tonight, so that will prove to be interesting.
