one week.

It's been one week since I've been mommy to two little boys.
We are so in love with our newest addition and big brother loves his new little friend.


Foster says, "I wanna hold you baby," and gets in position on the sofa.  These holding sessions don't last long, before he says, "I done!" and dusts off his clothes;)



Jude is nursing great and gaining weight so well.  He seems so tiny to me, so I love it that he is gaining weight on schedule.  Thank goodness, he never had any jaundice and at his one week doctor appointment everything looked great.

Because he was breech, he has an appointment to get his hips checked at one month, so I'm praying that everything is still fine with that!


Foster hasn't missed a beat being the center of attention, even with the baby here.  
He has been acting out some, but his teachers at school still say he is being sweet to his friends.  
He is giving out extra love between tantrums and he and his Daddy have been playing a lot of baseball!


My Mom has been helping me so much this week and she even kept Foster while I was in the hospital, but she will be heading home today.  I'm not sure what I would have done without her, so I'll be sad to see her go, but glad to try and find my own routine.

With a second baby I didn't need as much help with the baby because I knew what I was doing this time around.  I was clueless with the first baby!  
This time around, it's Foster that I need help with, so any help with him is awesome!  He loves having someone to play with!



Happy one week to you, sweet Jude!  We love having you in our family!

I completely understand what you're going through. (Ethan had just turned 3 and Annabella was 16 mo. when I came home with Preston.) I hope hope hope you have friends willing to help with Foster, especially while you recover from surgery.

I love that you took a pic of Foster laying next to Jude. Doesn't Foster seem leap years bigger to you now? (Even though he's still really a "little" guy. ;)

So glad you're back blogging. These little tidbits you will cherish. How I wish I had blogged (or at least written anything down) with my babies. I was too busy surviving! Lol.

Happy one week, baby Jude!
