The next 2 weeks were a bit busy. After he had his 1 month checkup, we did lots more activities.

We used the jogging stroller and went for a walk in the neighborhood one day.
Wells did great, and aside from sweating, he just slept the whole time
I used the breast pump for the 1st time in anticipation of an upcoming trip and Wells took a bottle like a champ. Our big boy has no problems with eating but it was kind of sad to see him not "need" me!
Look at his LIPS and CHEEKS!
On Thursday night we went on our 1st real road trip. I fed Wells and we did bedtime routine and then we got loaded in the car and left at about 8 pm to go to Ben's grandmother's house (about 4 hours away). We were all exhausted by the time we got there and went straight to bed. But Friday we had an awesome time visiting with Grandmother and having her meet Wells for the 1st time. Grandmother is Wells' only great-grandparent and we cherish every single second we get to spend with her.
She still has so much energy and fire in her and will get down in the floor with the baby and play. Wonderful memories!
From grandmother's house we headed to Atlanta for Ben's college friend's wedding! Ralson & Kimmee got married and Ben was able to be there for all of the festivities while Wells and I hung out at the hotel. During the day on Saturday we got out and about together in Atlanta and introduced Wells to all of Ben's college guy friends and their wives (Ben is the first one to have a baby). I hated to miss the wedding and heard it was gorgeous but loved hanging out with my little guy.
Hotel sink bath- He loved it!
After we got home on Sunday I took this picture because he was looking SO much older to me all of a sudden! Time needs to slow down!
At 6 weeks, momma had HER post-partum checkup and was all healthy! Wells came with me and did great in his carseat (he loves this thing and sleeps in it awesomely)

Next, it was time to get ready for our big trip (next post) and Wells hung out helping me pack!
