Campbell’s Photo Shoot
Eric has taken the past week off to spend time with Campbell. We’ve had a good week. We’ve had wonderful meals from our church family and friends that have made the past two weeks special as well. We are very thankful and appreciative more than you know. Monday was kind of a plain day of staying home and getting acclamated to Campbell’s habits and routines. Tuesday, we had a visit from Eric’s dad and godparents. Thursday was a big day with Campbell’s first photo shoot. We chose Chubby Foot Photography and was very pleased with our results. You can check out a preview at http://www.chubbyfoot.com/Recent/2008/062008/062008CampbellWEB2/index.htm We also had a doctor’s appointment that afternoon. It had rained pretty hard prior to the appointment and the lights were out at the doctor’s office. We had the beginning of her appointment by the little bit of light from a window and a lantern, but then the lights came back on to finish up with a heel prick and lots of crying. She hadn’t gained any weight which was a little alarming so we go back for a weight check in a week. Friday, we tried the grocery store for the first time. I figured we needed to test it out with two people present before I tried it solo. Don’t know if I’ll be attempting that again. I can’t really find a good option for putting her carrier in the cart and feeling comfortable with her safety. We might just have to wait till she can sit up in the front and go to the store at night or on weekends for now! We’ve also tried new things such as stroller rides around the block and putting her in the swing. Both of these she is quite fond of! Her belly button cord finally fell off Saturday. We’ll have to advance to baths in the little tub now. Nights haven’t been too bad…we’ll see how Eric does or if we’ll have to readjust our current shifts with him going back to work. Eric’s been a wonderful father and help to me this week…we’ll see how I do by myself :0
