One Week Down

Well one week plus some now. It has taken me three days to actually be able to sit down and write this. It is much harder to find time when you have the world's cutest baby to cuddle with!

So with the exception of the whole appendicitis thing, our first week home has gone really smoothly. No major meltdowns, no injuries, and a decent amount of sleep for everyone. Sounds like a great first week home to me! Jake got his first (and at this point 2nd) bath. Josh got pooped on once (through a towel thankfully!). And we have learned a bunch about out little monkey boy.

Things We Learned During the First Week:
-Jake likes to poop in a clean diaper
-Jake is a good sleeper and is almost impossible to wake before he is ready
-He won't eat if he needs to poop
-Daddy's goatee is fun to grab and pull
-He is not a fan of the sponge bath (hopefully this doesn't mean he won't like water!)
-0-3 month clothes are big even on a "big" baby
-Jake likes the car...as long as we are moving
-Socks do not stay on baby feet
-We go through a ton of diapers! (Can't wait to start using the cloth diapers!)
-Jake will let you know when he is hungry...by screaming very loudly
-We have great family and friends (We knew this before but can never be said enough)

And some pictures from this week.
