Update and bath time head shots

Here's an update. Owen will be two weeks old tomorrow! Bee left Friday (all were sad) and Nana (Kyle's mom Franny) got here yesterday (all were happy). Grandma help is wonderful, especially since Kyle has been back to work for a week! Owen is already past his birth weight (the docs want babies to be back at it within two weeks and he did it under a week--little eating champ.) And he's sleeping for longer and longer stretches (up to four hours) not necessarily at night, but we'll get there!
One funny story from the hospital I almost forgot about. My dear friend Megan called to check in on us. Here is part of our convsation, where I accidentally confirmed that Owen's middle name was Tennessee (just to be clear--it's not, it's Timothy).
Megan: What's his middle name?
Alison: Timothy (Megan heard Tennessee)
Megan: Like the state? (Alison heard Saint)
Alison: Yeah, I guess so.
And lastly, here are a few pre and post-bath photos. He's still pretty squirmy/squeaky during the actual bath part (which takes at least two people), but the after part (all warm and swaddled) he likes.

I was going to love him anyway, even if his middle name was Tennessee. I think most of my surprise was over your lack of state pride. Being from Texas and all - if you want you child named after a state, I thought that would be your logical choice :).

The last picture is ADORABLE! Can't wait to meet Owen!
