Lance: One Week

Grafitti near our home that I just noticed this week

Hard to believe, but it's already been a week since Lance was born!  I tell you, this past week has gone by as if I was in a time warp!  Where has the time gone?

Significant developments:
Lance
  • Yesterday (Sunday) we took Lance on his first trip outside since coming home from the hospital.  We visited the park.  Lance was awake the whole time and seemed to enjoy the trip.  There were a ton of people out in the park for some wedding-related thing at the Water Square and an ECFA speech in the speech plaza.  

The new stroller works great!

Lance gets some attention from a local woman
  • This morning (Monday) there was another park trip, but this time Lance pretty much slept the whole time.
    Since we've got a few pics of Lance, I wanted to compare how he looks with how John looked.  I was only able to find a couple pics of John here on Garblog from the first month or so after he was born, and in one of them, you can't see much of him (I am holding him while bottle feeding for the first time at three weeks old).  Here's one that we can probably use (I sure didn't take many photos back then - at least compared to now!):


    John, less than 1 month

    Obviously, it's easy to notice that Lance's eyes are dark (they appear to be brown), while John's were blue and later changed to grey, and that Lance's hair is darker and a bit thicker than John's was (although the perceived greater thickness could be largely attributed to the darker color - hard to tell for sure right now).

    Will try to post more on differences between John and Lance as time goes on.
