1 Week

Life seems to be going at a busy and slow pace. It's crazy to think that Brody has past his 1 week marker and moving into the two week marker. He has already brought joy to our lives and makes us laugh. At times he looks like a grumpy old man and other times he looks to precious for words...baby faces are hilarious. By Brody's first doctor appointment he weighed a hefty 9 pounds 2 ounces. I laugh because he loves to eat!...just like his mom and dad. :) Naturally, sleep has been the challenge for us but we are surviving well. Brody is not a fan of sleeping in his bassinet yet he will gladly sleep on or beside one of us in a heart beat. We are taking baby steps in this process and trying to be patient with our little cuddler. Addie continues to engage with Brody throughout the day and give him kisses here and there. I think she realizes he doesn't "do much" right now but we try to tell her that soon enough he will be up and about with her (a crazy thought).






Nina came out for a 5 day visit to help out around the house and with Addie. She is always so sweet and tender with the kids and really knows how to play well with them. My mom loves babies so holding Brody was one of her favorite things. She surprised Addie with a homemade princess dress that was amazing!...Addie LOVED it and would wear it almost everyday. Thanks NIna!
