William update

William is sleeping with Kyle so I figured I would write a little update. I am so blessed with such a wonderful little boy. He is a great baby. The only time I have heard him cry is when he was first born (I know I just jinxed myself). He whimpers when you change his diaper and all he does is grunt when he's hungry. He is still eating very well and sleeping 4 hours at a time at night. Last night he slept in his bassinet for the first time. It took me three days to get the courage to put him in there all night but I finally did it. Amazingly he slept better in there than in our bed. He's starting to stay awake longer and longer at a time and has started making baby noises even though he doesn't know what he's doing. He's only 11 days old and I don't want him to grow up! As for Kyle and I, we are doing great. He is a wonderful dad and he's taking wonderful care of me. I don't know what I'm going to do when he has to go back to work on Monday :( I'm doing good. I'm still pretty sore but part of that is because I pushed myself a little too much the first couple days because I felt a lot better than I thought I would. I am very ready to feel "normal" again and even start working out. I was very blessed to have both my parents come down to help out last week. Dad was here for 4 days and mom was here for 10. Mom left yesterday and I'm not quite sure what to do with myself. It was great to have both of them down here and for 10 days, mom was the maid and the cook. She is more than welcome to move down here :)


Dad meeting his grandson for the first time

This doesn't look quite right. Good thing I caught it before she got on the plane :)

Sounds like all is going very well for your little family! Mom's are wonderful! I know that Carmen & I were very grateful to have her mom w/ us for a few days when Caelyn was born. Love the picture in the suitcase! Who was that old man holding his grandson? ;) Hard to believe that my niece is a mommy and my brother is a grandpa.
Give William a snuggle for us and tell Kyle hello. Can't wait to meet your son.
Love,
Uncle John
