Four weeks already!
7
Wow, how time flies. I can hardly believe Brit is already four weeks old. He is growing so quickly. I think we’re on our last package of newborn diapers before we switch to size 1. He’s probably 8.75 pounds by now. His little tummy is getting round and there are more rolls and creases on his legs, arms and neck. Baby acne showed up last week, so I’m hoping that clears up soon. In the morning it looks almost gone, but during the day it gets worse. I think the heat we’ve had has made it worse.
He made his church debut on Sunday. We made it to sacrament meeting and he was really good. I only had to take him out near the end. We had fun seeing everyone again, and getting their reactions to Brit.
We went down to Orange County to Auntie Pat and Uncle Ken’s house for dinner. Uncle Craig made an amazing meal–like he always does–and we had a nice visit. Brit does like to eat when everyone else does though. Seriously, he does it often. I try to feed him before dinner is ready, but he doesn’t want to. But, right when it’s time to sit down he decides he’s hungry. Such a silly boy.
We’ve been having fun playing and doing tummy time. He hated it at first, but does better now, and for longer periods.

He’s even sitting up on his own for a few minutes. He’s really strong–when he is on one of our chests we have to hold him because he pushes up so much we never know where he will launch himself.
Brit also lost his cord this week. He has a pretty cute belly button–it’s more of a U than an O, but we think that’ll change. Since there is no more cord, he was able to get a tub bath for the first time. He liked it, especially getting his hair washed. But, it was also harder than the sponge bath because the tub is really small, and he was a lot more slippery.
And, here are a couple of cute pictures just for fun.
This one was taken today.

The pictures are great, but you and your family are beyond great.. Thanks for always trying to include me in you activities, Britton is beautiful, I havent seen an ugly Tate baby yet, (sorry Mark)
Britton is blessed to have such Spiritual and Awesome parents. I am blessed to be your aunt. I
still have the greatest picture of you and Dustin when you too were on Grandma Karen’s couch
lying next to each other, and at the tine you were the tallest. Woo-hooo! Remember I will always love you, take care and call me next time your in town. But, for now please E-mail the pictures of grandpa and grandma, Morgan, your mom, and Mark and you holding the baby that way I can print them out.
Thanks…Tell Britton and Mark hi, and that I love them too.
Kirsten you are living the greatest life ever, Great Grandma Gail always told me only a mother
understands what child does not say. You will find this is true as time goes on.
