Vale's first week

Vale had a wonderful first week.  He is adjusting well to life outside of the womb.
Like all babies, he's so cute when he sleeps!

Connor loves his brother!!!  He constantly is asking to hold the baby.  He gives him kisses all day long!

 

I'm very glad to have my healthy baby at home!  God is so good to us!



Grandma left today :(  We were so grateful to have her here!!  Her help was invaluable!!!


Jimmy's dad, Jim, has taken over as the 'family help' and we are so glad to have him!

 

 This is a video of baby Vale!  Don't get your hopes up... it's one of those video's that only a mother, grandma or close family want to see... :)


Vale's belly button fell off last night which was WAY quicker than Connors!
His circumcision is healing nicely and we've stopped having the put the gauze and A+D on it.
He's a great eater!  He's sleeping 5 hours eating then 4 hours, so I get 9 hours with only 1 interruption!!!
We took him to get weighed on Friday and he was 8lbs 9oz!  YEAH!
He doesn't like to be dirty... messed diapers really upset him.
He loves to be held and to sleep on mommy's chest on his belly.
Vale loves to be swaddled tightly, the exact opposite of Connor.

We're very excited to have a family of 4!  :)  It's not as hard as I thought it'd be... but I'm sure we haven't gotten to the bad point yet... :)
