She's been a great help. As soon as we arrived home he pooped. She heard me say he was poopy and she walks away from me towards the bathroom saying "yucky poopy, Mommy" very seriously. Next thing I know she brings me one of her diapers, the box of wipes and a disposal bag for the diaper. She then expected me to hand over the baby and let her get to work. Thankfully during the diaper change she was more interested in his "yucky belly" (belly button) than his special parts. She calls anything special on any of us our "body". We're gonna stick with that label for a quite a while i think. I don't want to be walking around in the grocery store and have her start telling people about his "body" with any other words. "Body" is good!
I'm a very visual person so to me pictures are my favorite. Here are a bunch more, hope you enjoy!
He's our cool dude!I received 3 beautiful floral bouquets and a dozen roses. Thank you for all the kindness and love!
(We also came home on Mom's birthday so some flowers were hers.)

Max with his eyes open. It doesn't seem like it happens too much. He loves his rest, and mommy's enjoying a lot of rest too.
Grammy and Pop visited us in the hospital! We were able to skype with Grandma Joy and Grandpa Larry in Utah from the hospital too!
Max in his bouncey seat. He has some room to grow :)
One of my favorite photos of him! He's so beautiful, and makes many cute faces in his sleep.
First family photo of Four after we came home.
My angel, Lilia wanting attention! She makes sure we don't ever forget how cute she is. I don't think I could forget :)Our angels from heaven!
Max had a dr. check-up today, 4 days old. He left the hospital weighing 7 lbs 8oz. (its normal to lose some weight for up to 2 weeks.) He weighed in today at 8 lbs. 1 oz. He loves his mama's milk! He's super healthy and doing great! I'm feeling pretty good and have lots of energy. He sleeps 2-3 hours at a time at night and doesn't keep me up for more than a few minutes at a time. We're all adjusting well. Yesterday was his first trip to the park and we visited City Hall, my dad's office. He'll certainly be kept on the move cause I don't like to just sit home for very long. Thanks for all the love and well wishes. Come and visit us if you can. We'll also be heading to Utah in less than a month, so maybe we'll see you then!
Oh I forgot how tiny babies are in their carseats when they are newborns. I love that picture. So glad you are all doing so well. He is darling and we can't wait to see him on skype.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! He looks like you, Mel! We'll be moving to Utah next month so maybe we can meet up if you're there at the same time!
ReplyDeleteLove you guys!
