One Week Later...

Nathan is already a week old! Crazy! It's been such an exciting week, though. So far, he's such a good baby! I'm trying not to get too excited cause I know they can change so quickly over the weeks. He naps all day, so I've been pretty well rested and he's even doing pretty darn good at sleeping during the night. The first few nights he woke up every couple of hours, but it was always cause he wanted something. Food, diaper change, etc. He'd always go right back to bed after we took care of it. The last two nights, though, he's decided he doesn't want to go to bed until 2 or 3. The only plus side of this is that once he does go to bed, he sleeps a good five hours and doesn't wake up till 7 or 8. So at least we've been getting some good chunks of sleep in there. =)

He's such an attentive baby, as some of you may have noticed through our facebook videos. He's always checking things out and he'll stare right at you and study your face. I love it. Sometimes it makes it hard to put him down. It's just been so fun getting to know him. We're having a blast. =D

Andrew's been back to work for three days now. On Monday, my mom was here and took Nathan and I to his first doctors appointment. The doctor said that he's a perfect baby. Yes! Hehe. Then we took the little guy over to visit my mom's friend Mary who lives close by to the doctors office. We had much fun showing off his baby blue eyes. Since then, it's just been me and Nathan during the day, and honestly it's going amazingly well. He's so content just hanging out whether he's sleeping or awake. I've been able to get naps, catch up online, watch tv... pretty much anything. So far, he's so easy that I almost get a little bored. I'm sure that won't last forever, so for now, I'll take it.

Happy one week, Nathan!!!! <3
