Happy Busy

It has been almost a week since Mr. Samuel was born. I feel like it was just yesterday! We have been busy busy adjusting to this new little member of our family. But it has been a good busy, a happy busy :) Joshua is LOVING being a big brother. He has been extra whiny lately but I am gonna give him a couple more weeks to adjust to his new brother before I let it worry me!


So apparently laying halfway on your side and flat on your back isn't the best way to deliver a baby. My back has been killing me ever since I had this little boy! But he came so fast I didn't have a chance to raise the bed and lay down the right way. I was just sitting on the edge of the bed to get the epidural and he started coming out. Well at least it went quick right? I am going to the chiropractor tomorrow and hopefully they can make me better.

This sweet little boy


has gained a WHOLE pound since we left the hospital Thursday. That is a whole pound in 4 days. The doctor gave me two gold stars for having fatty milk :) He was so surprised when the nurse told him that he took Samuel back out to weigh him again and see for himself. Sure enough my little boy is 9 pounds 6 oz already. What a little chunk.

We went to target last night and got Joshua his big brother present.

you can't go to target and not get an icee :)

I am so proud of my baby, Samuel slept SO good last night. A definite advantage to having a big baby. He slept from 10-2:30 ate and went back to sleep until 6:30, woke up and ate and went back to bed until 8! I loved it. Almost as much as I love waking up to this sweet face.
