Finally, Pictures of Our Little Guy!

As promised, here are some pictures of Dillon. Parenting just gets better and better everyday. He is doing so well. At his two week checkup, he was back up to his birth weight, and the doctor said he was doing well (this was music to my ears, after two weeks of stressing about how well he was eating). I tried to get pictures of everything that happened along the way. Here are some of them.




For all of you who requested, here it is: the dreaded belly shot. This is just moments before loading up and heading to the hospital.





This was taken just after Dillon was born; hence, my exhausted, fat face. However, it was really a cool experience, so it is worth having.





Look at that blonde hair! Dillon was basically born in need of a hair cut. His blonde hair hangs over his ears and well past the nape of his neck. It just seems wrong to cut a newborn's hair, but sometimes I think he could really use it! Casey and I were both born with dark hair, so the blondie was kind of a shock to us.




I don't know if you can see it in these pictures, but Dillon is a pretty close replica of Casey. When he was first born, we all really thought that he looked like Casey's uncle Kent. But I swear, everyday he looks more and more like his dad.

Sam he is such a cutie! I think he looks like a Christensen. I totally see you and your dad in him. You seem to be settling into parenthood well. And it is not fair that you look so good just after giving birth. Not all of us are so lucky. I can't wait to see you little man. You make a cute little family.
