it is amazing how time flies by and yet at the same time it's kind of hard to remember what life was like pre labor. :) we are so in love with our little dude. i think God totally knows what He was doing when He makes babies so stinkin' cute. sleep deprived parents don't have to work nearly as hard to be patient with 2 hr sleep shifts or frequent poopy diapers with the little one being so loveable and easy to cuddle for hours on end. :)
we are doing well, just tired. we have begun to experience some of the minor bumps in the infant care road such as diaper rash, spitting up more frequently (pray he won't get reflux please), discharge from his right eye which the dr. says is pretty common - it's a clogged tear duct that we are going to massage 4 times a day and put a salve on 3 times a day - doesn't seem to bother him, just looks like a major case of sleepy dirt all day long. :) with hormones shifting and lack of sleep i think the little things are getting to me more than they should. i just hate when he is fussy and you can't figure out what is wrong or how to make it better. thankfully, those spells only come every once in a while. Nick has been a fantastic daddy and husband. i am so thankful he has had last week and this week to be at home from dell. that is such a huge blessing. Natalya (Nick's mom) has continued to be a huge help around the house and for giving some much needed breaks to grab an occasional nap or believe it or not, a shower (happening almost every day. ;) i need to get going for now. i am getting my back adjusted which is going to feel sooo good. i feel totally out of whack since labor. i'll try to get some picks up here in the next day or two so you can see alexei - he is such a cutie. :)
thanks for reading!
