Oh, how I suck

Yes. It has been over a month. Horrible, I know. Therefore I thought I would send a little something out to let all of you know that I have NOT forgotten about this blog! I just have to get this stupid accounting class done and then I will have a week to breathe.

Anyway, the quick update is that that Quinn is amazing. Never did I think a little person that couldn't do much more than eat, sleep and poop would be so facinating. Every little thing - sounds, facial expressions, movements - are enthralling. He wiggles his way more into my heart each day.

He is quite healthy at this point, although he was not gaining enough weight at first. He was only 7 lbs, 11 oz on his one month birthday, which is about 1.5 - 2 lbs. under what he should have been. We started to supplement his regular feedings with formula and Quinn-man bulked right up, gaining a pound in a week!

Hope to have more out here for you all soon, but here are some professional photos that were taken at two weeks old - http://www.jamiemillerimages.com/slideshows/Quinn

The End of Day Three

Hi All! Sorry it has been a few days. I could say we've been busy, but you all know that already :o) We came home on Tuesday around one pm and I don't remember much of that day, except going to class that night. For those of you that don't know, I am working on my MBA at Mid-America Nazarene University. It is an accelerated program, so missing a class can put your pretty far behind. Michelle's grandma came by and hung out during class, which made me feel better about being gone for a few hours. Day two was a little rough as Quinn was still figuring out this whole being out of the womb thing - not a lot of sleep, but we made it. Day three has been much better as Quinn ate about every two to three hours and slept between that! Yea! Let's hope this is the start to the happy rhythm of our new family. I will try and get Michelle to blog a little tomorrow, but no promises as she's still pretty tired. Until then..............................

More Pics!

Here are a few pics I took of Quinn on the couch when we arrived home today.

Quinn is in the house!

Photos!

I have a few photos to share. If you checked your email earlier today, you may have already seen these, but if not (or even if you have) here they are!

Quinlan Victor Dunham

Long time, no post

Sorry about that. Here's are the highlights: (1) He now has a name. He has been dubbed QUINLAN VICTOR DUNHAM and will be called Quinn for short. Eventually there may only be one "n," but for now there are two. (2) Michelle and Quinn are getting the hang of the nursing thing. Both are still new at the process, so things are gradually improving. (3) Visitors are more than welcome. Please try and time your visits between 3:45 & 5:30 or after 6:30 today. We'll be heading home tomorrow @ 12:00, so if you wanted to visit in the hospital, today is your last chance. Hope to see many of you soon as we are excited about introducing Quinn to whoever wants to meet him!

No name..........yet

For those of you wondering, no I did not forget to tell the name. We simply don't have one yet. I will post it when we have decided.

He's here!

Our little guy has arrived! He showed up @ 2:43 PM and weighed in @ 7 lbs. & 9.5 oz. measuring 21 inches long. He's got dark blue eyes & curly, dark brown (black?) hair. I will get pictures up when I can.
