The first few days and heading home

The past few days have been a bit of a blur. Quinn is now 5 days old and we're slowly adjusting to being a family. He has his first visit with the doctor and was given a clean bill of health. He's been meeting lots of new people and has even had a couple of adventures outside of the house. We're pretty crazy about him.

Here he is getting to know his new friends.


Happy dad

The homecoming



Gotta love the mittens...those little fingernails are scratchy!

My favorite photo so far.

Introducing Andrew Quinn Moore

DAY 1. BIRTHDAY. May 9, 2009. Time of birth: 2039





Quinn, just a few minutes old...not knowing what the hell has just happened to him, and not too thrilled with it.

Weighs 7 lb 5 oz.




Dad thinks Quinn is pretty cool.



So does mom.





One hot new mother (and a cute kid).





Grandma Houston is pretty proud of Alex and Quinn.

Quinn thinks mom's boob is cool (just like his daddy).






Happy but tired new parents.







DAY 2. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.




Dad successfully changes first diaper ever and prepares to swaddle Quinn.

38 1/2 Weeks

Almost done! A Week and a half to go....

Dogwoods, Gardening and Strawberries

It's another beautiful weekend in NC. Jeff has gotten really excited about gardening this year and has quite the food plot going. He currently has cabbage, spinach, arugula, turnips, carrots, tomatoes, zucchini, basil, and cilantro growing. We've been enjoying arugula and spinach salads almost every night, but are still waiting for everything else to be ready. This afternoon we decided to visit the local farmer for an afternoon of strawberry pickin'. Mmmm strawberry shortcake for dinner tonight!

















Crabs and Scallops

Last weekend we were invited to a 65th wedding anniversary. It was a wonderful celebration. The party was at the Hoopers' home down east. Mark is a fisherman and gave us a tour of his soft crab and scallop operation. My camera got to come out and play for the first time in quite a while.
