Measures of Success

Mr. G-Boo still has us on our toes in Fayetteville. Is he hungry? Does he need a diaper change? Is he tired? These are all million dollar questions at this point. But, he's still our sweet sweet boy and is just the cutest thing ever! He gets this cute grin on his face when he's dreaming and it just melts our hearts. We can't wait for him to smile on purpose.

We measure success these days by counting lots of things...
All in a day we need 3-4 dirty diapers, 6-8 wet diapers, 8-12 feedings 2-3 hours apart and at night we HOPE for one 4 hour stretch of sleep! If we meet these numbers, it's been a successful day.

We go to the doctor tomorrow and we'll see how much he's grown since he was born. We can already see a difference in his size (sad to see him growing up so quickly) and are anxious to get the official numbers.

BeBe was here to help us out before and after the birth. We were terribly sad to say goodbye to her yesterday. Thanks BeBe for all that you did for us!!!!!

Aunt Robin arrived on Sunday and will be leaving us on Saturday. The time has gone by so quickly. We hate to see everyone go. What will we do on our own??

Thanks also to all of my Mom friends who have been encouraging me and offering advice the last couple of weeks. I really appreciate your help!



Chillin after lunch! "Let's call Grandma!"

We finally made it out of the house as a family for a short walk around the block.

Your family looks wonderful! What a handsome little boy you have! He looks a lot like his Dad in the latest picture. Call whenever you need to...or want to. :)

Love you! Paula
