3 Weeks Old!!

Bastian is adjusting amazingly! We are not having any more crazy temper tantrums! Which is such a blessing! We are already getting a routine in place! That is amazing! As of now our day looks like this.

I am interested to see how much this routine changes over the next couple months...

Here is Bastian enjoying some yogurt on his yogurt mat! He misunderstood what we said... and decided that it was a great place for a snack!

Another shot of our awake newest little man!

Other than that we are doing great! We are pretty certain Gabriel is going through a growth spurt, since today we have pretty much been nursing all day long!

Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.

More of the Newbie and the family.

Bastian and Gabriel! It was only a couple of days of torture and then our sweet little Bastian started becoming sweet again! Now he loves to love on his baby brother! Sometimes he is still a little rough, but I'm not sure that's going to stop any time soon...

Gabriel tucked in tight in the Moby Wrap. We LOVE this thing! It is by far the best way to carry a baby.

Bastian meeting Gabriel for the first time. We was very sweet!

All is well! Breastfeeding is going MUCH better. Gabriel is not looking jaundiced anymore and he is finally putting weight back on. He was not back to his birth weight by 2 weeks, which is ideal.. but the doctors are not concerned.

We are looking forward to our nonstop stream of visitors that will be here through February and March!

Our people must learn to do good by meeting the urgent needs of others; then they will not be unproductive.

--Titus 3:14, NLT
