Updating the blog!

It's been awhile since I've blogged...I guess you can say I've been a little busy! Anyways, these pictures were taken when Sam was about 2 weeks old. My mom stayed with me for almost 3 weeks which was a major blessing for me. I don't think I could have done it without her help, especially since I had to take Sam back and for to the hospital for bilirubin and weight checks for the 1st 2 weeks. I appreciated her help tremendously and Rachel was lucky to have someone to help her those first few weeks while I adjusted to our new life!

Rachel did pretty good with the adjustment, but she constantly wanted to kiss Sam. She only tried to pick him up once and luckily has not tried that since! I had to be aware of her constant move to make sure she stayed away from him, and although the newness has worn off a bit...I'm still telling her to leave him alone! She can be a good helper when I want her to be.

Sleeping Sam

This picture was taken after Rachel threw a fit about wanting to go swimming with the boys. I talked her into going swimming in the tub, but she insisted she had to wear her "swimmy". She also had a nice rasberry bump on her forehead from climbing out of her crib when I put her in there for throwing a fit. Luckily she hasn't tried that again!
