Who Are These Kids, And Why Are They Calling Me Mom?

The other morning it hit me...I have 2 kids. I am a mom. How did I get here? I am not sure if it was the lack of sleep that drove me to this thought, but it sure was a surreal feeling! My mom keeps referring to "the boys" and every time, I do a double take! I am still amazed that Spencer is finally here. Parker is adjusting really well to being a big brother. He loves holding Spencer and talking to him. The other day, he decided to show his little brother all of the fun toys in his toy box. The poor kid was probably overstimulated and will end up with ADD later in life, but Parker was having so much fun!



Spencer couldn't be a better baby. He is sleeping between 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours at night and is a great nurser. He was a little jaundiced last week, but that has cleared up and he has gained back 5 1/2 ounces in a week.




We forgot how little newborns are. Each time we hold him, we are just amazed by all of his tiny features. We feel so blessed!
