We're still here

We have survived our first week with no help from family...barely. I'm not gonna lie, there was a day this week where I ate cereal for every meal (Matt had night class). And I managed to get out of the house only once with both kids. It took me about an hour to get everything ready for us to leave, only to hang out at the park for about 20 minutes to get home in time for lunch. Luckily, Matt is so helpful from the moment he gets home, until the last child is tucked in bed.
Noah has been so patient with me and so accepting of Emme...He asks for her as soon as he gets up in the morning, and keeps tabs on her location throughout the day. He continues to be overly generous with his hugs and kisses, and wants to help out with her baths and diaper changes.
Emme is our little eater. With Noah, I was constantly worried about his weight gain, but I'm pretty sure we won't have that problem with Emme! We had a Dr.'s visit at around 2.5 weeks, and she managed to put on about 2 lbs already. She's such an easy baby so far, and doesn't even fuss during baths anymore. She doesn't like waiting for her meals though (just like her mama!).

Sweet Emme


Our eager helper


It was so cute, Noah just really wanted to sit on this bench while we were waiting for the photographer to arrive to take Emme's newborn pictures.


This is a video clip of Noah saying the words in his little picture book. He kept getting distracted by Emme :)
