Sleeping, Eating and Lots of Diaper Changes


Hello Faithful Blog Readers! I am writing to you from bed this morning. Kyle is approaching 3 weeks old and working towards a daily "routine." That is, as much of a routine as a newborn can be in. He's sleeping 3-4 hours at a time at night, but this means lots of broken sleep for mom & dad Nelson. Chad and I have decided that God made babies so cute because they do try your nerves at 3AM and love to spit up on themselves and you on a fairly regular basis (creating LOTS of laundry). We really love the little guy, despite the challenges (which are pretty minimal). We've had regular visits from Grandma and Grandpa Nelson, Aunt Ruth and Auntie Jennifer which have been terrific. We're enjoying the dinners that have been brought in by friends and we're still getting out for walks everyday. This new life is feeling pretty good and we're definitely getting into the groove. He's about 9.5 pounds now and getting more and more personality everyday. His eyes are focusing in on us a little more and he's making lots of interesting noises, especially when he eats. Speaking of noises, the crying has begun, so I have to run. I'll check back in later.
