Our Family

Well, it's been a week and a half and I think we're getting the hang of this parent thing! Of course we couldn't ask for a better subject to learn with:) We've been really enjoying getting to know this little guy! I'm continually amazed by him every day and so grateful to get the chance to mother him.


He's really getting the hang of breastfeeding and he's a great sleeper....during the day:) He thinks the day begins at midnight and ends somewhere around 6am. Just the exact opposite of when mommy and daddy want him to sleep! He did spend a few hours awake this afternoon, so maybe we're beginning to get things figured out! He's back up to 7lbs. 1oz., so he's steadily gaining, on his way back to his birth weight.


We are very lucky to have grandma (my mom) back for the long weekend! We've definitely missed her this week! She's so great about all the day-to-day chores that I seem to have no time for anymore. And of course, Jackson loves her and so it's great for them to spend quality time together (and for mommy and daddy to get some rest!).

We are loving the heck out of this little guy! Couldn't imagine our family without him! For those of you who haven't met him yet, we hope you can soon! And we've definitely enjoyed showing him off to everyone who has!


xoxo
Matt, Niki and Jackson
