One week old

Pictures courtesy of Big Sister - she loves to take pictures of him.
here is one with his eyes open even though big sister got her finger in the pic.
Turner being a clown lately. he had to take off his shirt when he got home last night like his daddy and is wearing his hat all the time now - so cute

I can't believe Austin is already 1 week old. He is still being the perfect baby. I mean it, really, he is perfect. he eats and then goes to sleep, if he is awake, he is content, he loves his pacifier and will put himself to sleep sucking on it, at night he goes right back to sleep after eating, and he is eating about every 3 hours right now. I have absolutely no complaints. He lost his umbilical cord last night, so we will have our first real bath today.
Yesterday we had a great day home together. I got the house put back in order which made me feel so much better and we even got in a nap together. Today we are having our first outing together - gotta make a Target trip. Then we'll try to get in another nap. He slept great last night, but unfortunately his big brother didn't. Turner came in about 3:00 and was up until about 5:30 or so this morning. I don't know what his deal was, but he had a really full disgusting diaper this morning, so maybe he was having tummy trouble. Mackenzie was "scared" and got in bed with us too. A queen bed is definitely tight with 5 in it! lol I ended up taking Austin in to Mackenzie's bed with me and then Turner came in there too, but at least we all had a little more room. I am still having bad headaches and am staying on pretty much full pain medication. The funny thing is that now I get them when I lay down, so anytime I lay down I wake up with an excruciating headache. Kind of a cruel joke. Oh well, all worth it still and now I'm just getting used to it.
I am so excited that Austin's best friend is coming to visit today - well, he might not make it here till tomorrow morning, but he will get to meet his new best friend tomorrow. Fran is going in tonight to be induced, so Austin and I will go up to meet Sean tomorrow as soon as Fran is ready for us. I am so excited and nervous. It will be so awesome for both of us to finally be sitting holding our beautiful babies together.
