Monday - Silas went to the doctor, and was given a clean bill of health. Later that night, we tried out grandpa Watt's new webcam, to with grandma a happy birthday. The video was very choppy, but the important thing is that they got to see Silas.
Tuesday - Summer's first day home alone with Silas. The day went fairly well.
Wednesday - Phil and Casey brought a very yummy tater-tot casserole. We were a little late to worship services, and stayed fairly late as well. Some women on the congregation decided to disclose a little TMI in Dan's presence - I guess since I am a father now, certain topics can be discussed in my presence.
Thursday - We went to Shaun's place to watch the BCS Championship game. Silas spent a lot of time being passed around to the many other guests, and behaved himself quite well. He even wore red and white to cheer on the Big 12. Ultimately, the Sooners lost, and dad hummed The Eyes of Texas as we were leaving.
Friday - Silas and Summer had a quick doctors visit today. It looks like he is eating quite well, and has regained most of the little weight that he lost in the first week. Preston and Kelli called us up wanting to do something, and they came over and we all played Scrabble. Summer and I didn't go to bed until almost 1 am, probably the latest we have been up since Silas was born. Silas didn't have the best of nights either, waking Summer up many more times than the rest of the week.
Saturday - Today we all ran some errands. We spent about 2 hours at the mall, making some returns, mailing a few things, and looking for a baby gift. Silas decided to get hungry and mess up a daiper, so almost 1/3 of our time at the mall was spent taking care of those needs. We then went to get Summer a dress for Spring's wedding, dropped a book off at the library, and then to Home Depot to pick up a replacement drain for our bathroom sink. Dan spent about an hour fixing the sink - now almost 2 months later we can finally use our sink.
A lot of the evening was spent taking some B&W pictures of Silas. I recently acquired a 'monolight' flash and umbrella, so we spent a couple hours taking pictures of him. The results are now available in our Smugmug gallery.
And now, for your viewing pleasure, some of the pictures from tonight, animated at animoto.
