My Loves
Jack is one week old today...hard to believe that this time last week we were in the labor and delivery sweet. At times is seems like we got home yesterday, others it seems like we have known him forever. He is such a good baby. Sleeps and eats...that's about it. We did get his bilirubin down, so no more light!!!! We had to go to the doctor's office yesterday for them to prick his heel, and he didn't even flinch.....poor kids feet are black and blue. He's growing like a weed...all ready back up to his birth weight. He's sleeping about 3 1/2 to 4 hours a time, so we're getting a bit of sleep. I'm lucky to have WEs alternating getting up with me. He said I was a bit delirious this morning when Jack started crying. Here's a picture of /jack on the light...he was basically strapped to it...so das, but we are so grateful to be off of it!
Grace is an amazing child. Wes got to go with her on her class field trip to the Pumpkin Patch today. They had such a good time, but I was so jealous. She is still thriving in Kindergarten, still loves her friends, Mr. Shivers, and the cafeteria! She loves him!!!
She has been such a blessing this past week (and of course her whole life). I am sure that it has been a HUGE adjustment for her over the past week. She's been the center of mine and Wes's universe, and now she's having to share that spot. I worried, and still worry about her, but she has been a champ. She is the reason that Wes and I wanted to have more kids. She is such a dream, and has brought so much to our lives. Jack has a lot to live up to. She took some pictures of herself this week...It hought I would share one....it really captures her (even if she is only an amateur photographer.
WEs had to go back to work for a couple of days this week ( I only freaked out mildly). But he's so wonderful.....still getting up with Jack.
Life couldn't get much better for the Farmer's. It is so easy to lose perspective, but with these two sweetie pies it makes it much easier!
Time to go Trick or Treat!
