No matter what I say, everyone in Minnesota is going to think I'm behind this behavior 100%. I'm actually not, but I do find it pretty hilarious. He won't wear that "pink" jersey to save his life! We go through this same routine every Sunday.

The Beginning of Nate & Kate
I asked Nathan if he got a new truck and he responded with this: "Yes. And I got a haircut and I went to McDonald's and I got a baby sister." If that doesn't sound like a good day, I don't know what does.
How many other people envision Nathan taking newborn Kathryn for rides up and down the hall in his new truck? Yikes!
Nathan's new haircut. When dealing with Nathan, you can be sure you'll get a laugh out of even the smallest things. Paw-Paw took Nathan for his quarterly haircut and Nathan didn't get mad or anything... until it came time for choosing a sucker. The hair stylist handed Nathan the entire bowl of suckers and Nathan politely took the entire bowl of suckers and headed for the door. Paw-Paw stopped him and explained that he could choose one sucker. He got mad and cried and said he wanted the whole bowl. Each party compromised and Nathan left with two suckers. When Paw-Paw told Steve and me about the incident, Steve said that only our kid would expect an entire bowl of suckers for getting his hair cut.
Checking out "Baby Sister," also known as "Tafryn." Nathan doesn't pronounce the "k" or "th" sounds properly.
He loves giving Baby Sister kisses. He kissed her head this morning, then said, Baby Sister's hair is too fuzzy.

Paw-Paw introduced Nathan to the self timer on the camera. This is all Nathan wanted to do one evening. He likes to push the button then run to the couch and act silly for the pictures.

The Kat's Out of the Bag
Kathryn Elizabeth decided to grace us with her presence on November 19 at 5:04 a.m. The second that I saw her, I forgot all about how miserable she made me for those nine months. We came home from the hospital this afternoon. I could have stayed one more day (and I'm sure I'll be kicking myself tonight when I want to sleep and I don't have the hospital nursery to call), but I really missed Nathan.
Steve is bound and determined to be Kathryn's favorite. He's finally resigned to the fact that Nathan is a mama's boy and there's no changing that.
Here is Kathryn at 24 hours old.
Just to compare, here is newborn Nathan.
As everyone knows, Nathan is extremely spoiled with all of my attention, so you can imagine how big of a relief it was to have Nathan so excited to meet "Baby Sister" for the first time. He showed her all of his favorite toys and even went up and gave her a kiss on his own. He likes to know where Baby Sister is at all times and what she is doing.
More to come later. Blogging with only one hand free takes a really long time!
Ahhhh, it feels so good not being pregnant. Here we are about 10 minutes after delivery.

Best Friends Forever
There is nothing and no one that can come between Nathan and Paw-Paw's relationship. They are the absolute best of friends.
They have both had permanent smiles on their faces since we picked Paw-Paw up at the airport on Tuesday.
I went along on one of Paw-Paw and Nathan's walks in hopes of bringing on labor on Wednesday. I soon remembered that walking with Nathan involves more standing around and talking about stuff than actual walking.
Paw-Paw and Nathan taking care of business. Paw-Paw was on a conference call and Nathan sat there and repeated everything Paw-Paw said. I wonder what whoever was on the other end of that call was thinking.
After they got their work done, it was time to play.
