Caleb is 1 week old!

Well the first week we have had our ups and downs. Caleb didn't do so great sleep wise our 2nd night home. Ross ended up bringing him downstairs to let me sleep which was nice. But now we have figured out that if we put the boppy pillow in his bassinet and lay him on it he will sleep really good. Last night he was only up twice. I have had intentions to fully nurse him but we have had a rough start. He would not nurse at the hospital or at home so I ended up going to a clinic to get a little help which has seemed to help a little. I haven't had to supplement formula so I'm happy about that. We're going to see how the next few weeks go. Caleb is growing and changing by the day. He looks a lot like Ross from the front but I do think he looks like me from the side. Isaac has had a rough couple of days too. Sunday night he came down with a fever of 102.8. He was pretty sick on Monday and I was concerned about Caleb getting sick so I called the doctor and we got in at 6:15 Monday night. Turns out he has a sinus infection and is on antibiotics. He is doing better but extra clingy and will not nap at all. I'm not sure if his clingyness has to do with him not feeling well or Caleb. I can't even take a nap because he is not a good napper. At least he sleeps 10 hours at night except for these last couple nights. I am so thankful that my Mom has been able to be with us for a few days to help out. These first few days are awfully rough. Well I suppose you are waiting for some more pictures so here you go!!!!!

Glad to see you made it through the first week. Sorry it was so rough! Hopefully you guys will get a routine established soon and you can rest up too so you can enjoy your 2 (3) boys!

Good luck making it through these first few weeks! If you guys make it to our area, don't have any worries, there will be plenty of hands to take care of both of your babies while you catch up on some sleep!
