week 1

The first week flew by with our little man. We were so busy taking care of his diapers, feeding and burping him that we found little time for anything else. We are sleep deprived, tired and overwhelmed but so happy to be parents. B is sleeping for only one hour or less between feedings so I am up every two hours during the night. Some of the other challenges we had to face this week are his first bath (he hated it), diaper changes without getting pee all over ourselves and swaddling (it's harder than it looks). We have a lot to learn. Still having trouble figuring out why he is crying sometimes. It doesn't help my hormones are running amok making me super sensitive. So happy Nick is home this week to help.

We are also grateful this week for so many thoughtful friends and family.  We have received many adorable gifts for Bennett.  He even has his very first pair of Ray Bans already.
