Hudson's First Week At Home

During Hudson's first week at home, he ......


Had a visit from Jenn, Cydney and Jason


Sported the shades as Pop, Grinna and Daddy worked in the yard.

Were rocked by Grinna and Pop


Enjoyed a visit from Summer

Had some good tummy time
Was loved on by the small group girls :)

Had a special visit from Dena :)


Went on several walks in the neighborhood with mommy, Snuggles and Grinna

Posed for MANY pictures :)

Took a few sponge baths and had a blast with Grinna.

Grinna and Pop went home today. It was so sad, and I bawled so much and still cry just thinking about it. I did not count on this being such an emotional experience on the other side of his birth. I will have a few days
"alone" until Travis' mom comes on Wednesday. Dani is coming to hang out with me tomorrow, since she is out of school. It's nice to be a new family of three, but I'm slowly getting used to the quiet house and lack of people here besides me and Hudson. I wish all of his grandparents lived closer!

In other news, Hudson is doing so much better sleeping at night. Sometimes, I have to wake him up to feed him during the night. I will continue to do this until he reaches his birth weight again. We go to the doctor for his two week checkup on Tuesday afternoon, so hopefully we will know more then. If he has gained three more ounces, then we can let him sleep as long as he wants during the nights. We are trying to keep him awake as much as possible during the days and I think that has helped tremendously!! Please pray for us that I don't worry about every little thing that could go wrong and that I would trust God with this blessing that he has given to us. Also, pray that I'll be able to survive without my mom, without going crazy!!
