This dad really loves this baby:
Tate's arms always end up in the strangest positions when he sleeps.
Loooovvvvving his changing table. I think it's his favorite place in the house.
Making the "O" face. That little swaddle blanket follows him around everywhere he goes; thus, its frequent appearance in these pictures. Maybe we should name it.
Meeting Uncle Matt when he was in town for business.
Tate was a great Rack-o partner. We won.
He's looking at our vintage travel posters - there is a large black camel and a large black bull and seems to always find them when we're hanging out on the couch.
We're not the only ones who admire him -- here he is meeting Grandma and Grandpa Gardner when they came for Thanksgiving.
We're also not the only ones who take photos of him!
How much do you love this sweatshirt? I thought he might be cold, so I put it on him. Unfortunately, it's too big for him and he really hated it. I can't wait until he fits into it!
Another thing he hated was baths, but he's starting to really like them. He's such a chunky baby, but his legs are so skinny! Tate looks a lot like my family and Matt always wonders what of him made it on Tate. Skinny legs. Definitely. Skinny legs are NOT a feature that we Bradfords carry. I'm also hoping Tate got Matt's brain because I am for sure losing mine. (Conversation Matt and I had this morning -- M: How much should we plan on paying someone to watch Tate? Like, $30 a day? A: $30 a day?! No way is that enough. I think most people get paid $150 a week. At least. M: Right. That's $30 a day. A: Moron! No, it's not. Thinking for a moment while M looks at me quizzically. A: Oh, okay. I guess it is. M: Oh, man.)

don't hold back the pictures...keep 'em coming. this boy is CUTE. i love reading about how your new life as mom is going. the more details, the better.
He is so adorable, and I'm sure you're doing great. It's hard, very hard, at first. It does get better as you become more accustomed to it. I'm sure you just start at him all day.
By the way, we bought our first TV (almost exactly like yours)about a week before Abby was born!
