Update

I thought I would take a moment while Kevin had Prestyn and give everyone a update on how things are going. Other than the fact that I wish Kevin was able to spend more time with us instead of working out of town so much lately we are enjoying our Family time just sitting on the couch together watching TV while winding down before we all go to bed. Prestyn is doing much better after all the blood work and trouble we had with his jaundice. He now actually has a pink tone to his skin and I have just recently noticed that his eyes are starting to turn green. He is growing so fast his NB clothes are still big on him, but I'm sure in no time they will be too small. He sleeps pretty good at night thankfully he has his moments some time where he wakes up after an hour or two but he usually sleeps for three to four hours at a time. He is staying awake a lot more during the day this has been fun and frustrating at times since I want to do things and cant because he's wanting my attention, but he usually for a part of the morning is ok being alone sitting in his bouncer starring out the window looking at the trees and the squirrels. I don't think I could have asked for a better baby! He smiles a lot and laughs too usually in his sleep or while I'm holding him it's not at me so I am so curious to who and what he's laughing at. I wish I could tap into his thoughts. We are all doing really well though and we are loving having this sweet sweet baby in our home.

New Tricks

Being a new mom you learn real quick how to maintain your normal routine while accommodating a new born as well. Here is a list of new tricks as well as new ways I have had to learn with a new born!

One Handed

1. Eating your food
2. Groceries shopping
3. Getting dressed
4. Cooking dinner
5. Cleaning the house

Things I no longer have time for

1. Enjoying my showers
2. Browsing in stores
3. Reading
4. Talking on the phone
5. Pretty much everything else!

Things I lost

1. My mind
2. Time
3. Sleep

Although life as you once knew no longer exist I would never trade it! I love being a new mom and love my adorable son. Although I am leaning new ways to adjust and find little windows of time to complete house hold task as well as errands life is good!

19 days old


Here is a picture I took of Prestyn today he is 19 days old. I cant believe how big he is getting and so fast he is about 7lbs 5oz and 21in long. I am just now being able to put him in his NB clothes even now they are still too big. I'm hoping soon well be over the Jaundice he is for the most part a really good baby and usually pretty content, but when he's mad owe will he let you know.

Nap TIme
