Noah 2 Week Old Photos

Noah is now 3 weeks old & it is amazing how much he has changed!  He now is a splitting image of Nick, I see myself in him with certain facial expressions, but he is definitely a daddy's boy.  At his last appointment he weighed 8lbs 3oz.  As of right now his Doctor is not worried about his weight gain.  He wants to give him another month & see where he's at before making any changes to his diet.

At 2 weeks old, we had our friend stop by and do pictures.  It ended up being a very stressful ordeal for Noah.  He didn't like it one bit because he was mostly naked.  We cut the shoot short, and ended up with less pics then what we paid for, but are very pleased with them.

All-in-all everything is going well.  He has made this new parent process very easy for us. Nick started back to work about a week ago, and I go back to school the 1st week of May.  It should be very interesting to see how I do with being away from him for 8hrs.

I hope you all enjoy the pictures!

Noah is Finally here!

So Noah has finally arrived!  He was born March 31st at 11:11pm via c-section after 23hrs of labor. He weighed 8lbs 6oz, and measured 20 1/4 inches. Nick & I have been on cloud nine since his arrival.  We were in the hospital for 2 & 1/2 days due to needing antibiotics to fight off a potential infection because I had a fever during the labor & he had one after being delivered. 

We are now home and getting use to our new lives (all 3 of us).  Noah is finally getting the hang of breast feeding, something I had been stressing about before I left the hospital.  He tends to be an early night baby.  By 2 or 3 in the morning he is ready for bed, and has been sleeping until 5:30 or 6:30, but its only been 2 nights since he's been home, so this is for sure to change.  He is a very good baby, and only cries when he is changed.  With the help of Mom & Nick we are making it through our first week home.  We are just so happy to finally to have him home, enjoy the pictures!    I will post as often as I can on our progress & post more pictures.

This was taken in the Nursery after his testing & blood work. 

With Momma, it was so sad to see him with this IV attachment in him

He loves to sleep & ALWAYS has his hands up on or by his face

Finally home, but upset because I woke him up for a feeding
