One Week

It's hard to believe a week has already gone by since baby Joey came into our lives. Having basically two babies in the house makes life interesting & keeps us busy. Johnnie is a little jealous when Joey is being held but he does seem to love him already (as much as any 15 month old can love). In the morning if they are both awake Johnnie likes to climb up on the bed & greet Joey with a morning smooch & now Johnnie has another face to point body parts out on. When Joey is asleep Johnnie really enjoys all the attention he still gets from everyone. He loves when grandpa plays the tickle game.Now on to my one week update. This is the 1st picture installment for Joey's scrapbook. I did it for Johnnie & now of course I'm doing it for Joey. I take at least 1 picture a week & document anything new going on in his life. During the day Joey whimpers if he's cold or hungry & he sleeps well. BUT at night he gets really fussy & gassy & refuses to sleep more than a few hours all night. I'm sleepy but I just keep reminding myself that my baby will only be a newborn for a short time & I don't want to miss out on any of his moments... happy, sad, fussy, intense, or goofy! Happy one week my blue eyed baby boy! I also wanted to thank Katie & Wallis for bringing us dinner the other night. Delicious & a nice break from having to prepare dinner. Too many people to list to thank for the flowers, gifts, & calls. We really appreciate your kindness! Oh & as a side note... Sara (would link to your blog if you had one :-) I finished all the biscotti. Yummy!

You have a really great attitude for having a newborn. The second time around tends to be hard because you (like the first time around) don't know how everything will work together. Good for you! Great pictures.

Love the one of Johnnie pointing to Joey's nose! So do you get their names mixed up yet? Glad my husband can be of service to you! LOL!(-:
