Zoo

We went to the zoo on Wednesday with the Tomans and Venables. It was a lot of fun. (More)

Noah had an appointment at six weeks, kind of both his one month and two month appointments, because of scheduling. He is 13 lb, 13 oz, 23.5 in. Not as fast to gain as Jonathan, but still good and healthy. My suspicion is that he won't be as fat as Jonathan was since Jonathan is now drinking the extra milk. (By the way, Jonathan's weight has stayed the same despite having that extra milk. He has reduced his solid food calories to compensate.) (More)

Smiles! and More

It seems as if Noah is giving us real smiles now. He also is moving his hands and arms more purposefully. (More)

Noah Activities, Similarities

Noah is a great sleeper and a great nurser. He will sleep 4-5 hours straight at the beginning of the night, and 2-3 hour segments during the day. This actually gives me time to play with Jonathan and get work done! He's also efficient at nursung and does not stay on as long as Jonathan did (or even still does!) (More)

The First Day By Ourselves

It started out beautifully. When Jonathan needed a morning diaper change, I put Noah in the carseat which was in the basement family room. He started fussing while I was still rinsing the diaper, so Jonathan went out and started singing quietly to him! When I got there, Jonathan was gently rocking Noah. It was very sweet. (More)

The First Few Days

Noah's a great sleeper, we think because I already had some milk. We had our first tandem nursing session at home Thursday morning and it is sweet to see the two nursing brothers looking at each other across me. (More)

Noah's Birth Story

Wednesday, June 28. 2:30am. My water broke! That was different. I woke Jon up with the news and he called the midwife while I went up to go to the bathroom and to wake up my parents. The midwife said it could be a long time before labor gets going after water breaking, but that we could come up when we wanted to. I'd rather labor there than have the baby on the road, so we made preparations to leave. No hurry, so Jon and Mom made the phone calls and I rested. By the time we left, I was having mild contractions about ten minutes apart. (More)
