First week as Parents ...

I'm not sure if we're in the 'honeymoon' phase, or Eli is just that good ... but this parenting thing is a piece of cake! I'm actually getting more sleep now, than before he was born! We usually put him down between 9 and 10 and he'll wake up at 1 and then again around 5 - for quick feedings. We haven't had any inconsolable crying - just when he's hungry or needs a new diaper. Speaking of diapers ... this kid has gone through 60 diapers since we came home on Friday!!! Thank goodness I bought in bulk. We took our first family outing yesterday. We ran errands o base and went to the hardware store ... he slept the entire time!

Here's some new pictures of him ... all he does is sleep, so it's hard to get exciting pictures of him!! He hates his bassinet, so most of the time (during the day) we let him sleep in his Boppy on the couch with us.

The dogs love him, especially Lola. When he is fussy in the middle of the night, she will paw at me until I get up and get him. When I feed him she will lay next to him ... or on top of him!

This is his super serious look ... he has so many crazy facial expressions.

So tired ...
