4 months old!

Dan gave Nathan his first real haircut with the buzzers! (I had trimmed the back and sideburns when he was 3 wks old.) It looks so much better. No more Alfalfa like before-->

I'm not one to get enthused about clothes shopping, but with my return-to-work date looming, I had no choice. I was actually gone 5 hrs on Saturday, the longest I've been away from my baby! It turned out well because it gave Dan lots of one-on-one time with Nathan. He sure loves being a dad.

Sunday evening Dan flew to Salt Lake to start training in a different plane. (a "Brasilia.") Even though he's going from a regional jet to a turbo prop engine, this is a great opportunity because he is upgrading from first officer to captain. We'll miss him while he is gone for 2 1/2 wks. I am so NOT tech savy, but I have to figure out how to set up the webcam so Dan can see Nathan.

Last week Dan helped my dad remove/replace a couple windows on his house, one of MANY home projects Dad has lined up for this summer. That's what is great about a big family. You always have a couple extra hands. The Bradfords were over last week (sorry no pics) to tear off old roof shingles. Even Liz's oldest were up there helping out part of the time.

Ah, life was easier when the pinky trick was a "sure thing" to calm him. Now it's 20% at best.
