1 Week old


OK, so the first week has been crazy, with issues at work keeping me from enjoying this weeks activities I have a taste now what a journey this is going to be. Doctor visit came back with a great bill of health for the little guy whom I will now refer to as Awesome. Awesome still has a bit of a bump or cone head if you want to call it that, from the traumatic labor he had to go through to meet us. Other than that and a few run ins with gas after eating, he is perfectly healthy. We are all getting use to the schedule of eating, sleeping and pooping but his mother is clearly the hero in this journey so far. She is up every 2-3 hours feeding awesome and I try to take over in between since I don't produce milk. Today, I actually almost saw my first pee fountain when I was changing the diaper but I shielded it with his diaper, so it was a close call.

Awesome has meet a lot of people lately but for the most part he is not getting out much and our visitors to the house are limited. My mom and aunt did come down to help out a little, which was great.

I wanted to show you how many diapers he goes through in a weeks time. This bag has around 100 diapers in it. talk about a carbon foot print... This is just one week from one baby, think about 1 million babies born, that's crazy, that's China.

Lastly, Bruiser seems to be adapting well. He does request attention and I am doing my best to hang out with him when I can. I think that is helping him with the transition. We will see as time goes on.
