One Week Today!!!

Wow, I can't believe that my baby is one week old today!!  This week has flown by.  I'm trying so hard to really let every moment soak in.  I want to memorize exactly how he is as a newborn so that I can remember it forever.  He is just the most precious thing, and I am so in love!!  We are really doing good.  The only rough times are usually from about 5:00 to 10:00 in the evening.  During that time he is either eating or fussing constantly.  Thankfully, that is usually when mom or dad or both have stopped by, so we have had a little help with the cranky times.  I just hate that most of the time Travis gets to spend with him is while he is so cranky.

I've had a little trouble adjusting to the lack of, or at least, rearrangement of sleep.  Anyone who knows me knows that I need good sleep to function.  So, this has definitely been a challenge for me.  I'm just thankful that Blake and Evan are at school during the day so I can lay down and nap with Beau in the mornings.

Here are a few pictures of our past week...Hanging out on the couch with Daddy!!

First bath!  Nonnie gave him his first bath, complete with every single surface cleaned with a q-tip.  She is serious about baths!!  I just stood back and watched :)

Hanging out in his room!!

Granny came over for a visit.  Here she is holding him for the first time!

His new BFF Whitney Scogin came over.  They had a great time...sleeping!

Blake absolutely loves his baby brother!!  (Why do some pictures load sideways...it's driving me crazy!!)

He was a little yellow, so he had to spend some time under the flourescent cabinet lights :)

This was totally un-posed.  I just walked in the bedroom and found them like this.  The picture quality is terrible because I took it with my phone.

Evan has bonded!!  It took a couple of days, but he is crazy about Beau!

I have so many more pictures I want to share, so check back soon for more updates on our precious little Beau!!
