1 Month!!

It is hard to believe that we have a 1 month old. Time is really flying by! Tom is growing and changing right before our very eyes. He really is the sweetest baby. We have had a very busy month of traveling to Austin to visit our families and introducing them to Tom. Tom has loved all the attention from his aunties, uncles, cousins and grandparents.

Right now Tom is eating every 3 - 4 hours, which is ok with me since he is becoming more predictable. We can usually figure out what he needs depending on the time of day. He loves tummy time and loves to observe everything. I don't think anything gets by this guy. He hates to have a dirty diaper ( i mean the wheels come off when this happens). He just started smiling at us on purpose which has been amazing! He really likes to do FaceTime with his Aunt Julie, Grandmom Lynn and Granddaddy. He can actually see them when they talk to him. It is pretty cool!

1 Month Stats:

Height - 22 inches (55th percentile)
Weight - 9lbs 11.5 oz (50th percentile)
Head - 39 (95th percentile)

He's Here!

Well, he has been here for almost two weeks but I am just now getting around to blog about him due to lack of sleep and being a new mom. We welcomed Thomas Hall Trantham on August 3rd at 11:25pm. We are so thrilled to get to know this little guy and are excited that we have entered the world of parenting. Here we go!!! Tom really is the sweetest baby ever! He sleeps all day and is pulling all nighters, but we know a routine will come with time.

Proud Papa!


Going home outfit. He looks like a little Dutch Boy! Ha!




Bath Time! I know it doesnt look like it here, but he loves his Tummy Tub!



Meeting Miss Camryn Rose Louise Capps for the first time!


Our AC went out this past week and we got to have a sleep over at our good friends, The Deweys, who have a newborn as well! Tom and Brynn Leigh Dewey had their first sleep over!!


We also had our first road trip to Great Grandmom's house in Weatherford while our AC was being fixed! Tom got to meet his 2nd cousin Cait!


We are having so much fun with Tom and can't imagine what life would be like without him!

Up All Night

Austin and I cannot wait to watch this show in the fall! Hopefully we will find humor in it all....

We went to the doctor and got to see Baby T. He weighs 7lbs 3oz. I am loving this technology! I cant tell who he looks like but he is a little chunk! And dont mind that piece of placenta in the way....

How far along: 36 Weeks

Size of the baby: Stalk of Swiss Chard - 6lbs, 19in

Maternity Clothes: So over it! I just started buying some close for my post baby body.

Cravings: Anything cold...ice cream, snow cones, popsicles...you get the idea. It's HOT!

Symptoms: Swelling

Movement: Still some movement but not as much. There is no room to move.

Name This Baby: We've narrowed it down but want to wait until we meet the little guy to make a final decision.

Update: I start my weekly Dr. appts this week and will get to see the little guy in 2 weeks! Cannot wait to see how big he is and who he looks like. The nursery is almost done! Just waiting on a few decor items to be delivered. Will post pictures soon! We are counting down the days until we meet Baby T. I think we have almost everything finished, just washing clothes, blankets, etc.... Maureen - Thank you so much for everything. All the outfits are adorable and just perfect! My mom came and stayed with us this past week and it was so good to have her here to help with the final things. It wont be long now!

Belly Business - 33 Weeks

How far along: 33+ weeks

Size of the baby: Pineapple 4lbs, 17 in

Maternity Clothes: Ready to be done with these and get back in shape!

Cravings: Meat...It's a good thing Austin has been using the smoker lately! Baby T. has filled up on a lot of protein.

Symptoms: Still working on getting a solid night of sleep. I got my hair done on Saturday and fell asleep in the chair!

Movement: I am definitely starting to notice some of Baby T.'s body parts...feet, elbows, knees, bottom.

Gender predictions: This section should be called Name This Baby. We are narrowing it down, but I want to start ordering some items with his name on it so we better decide soon!

We are almost finished with the nursery. Austin has been busy moving furniture around and putting all the baby equipment together. He has done a great job!

Austin putting the crib together. Belle is such a good helper!


Our little guy already has his first little hunting chair from Cabelas. Multi-use of course!

I was on my way home for lunch lunch last week and saw several police officers crossing Preston Road on their horses?
