More on Joe

We were dressed and ready to leave the room, all of us.....are you ready for this? Drumroll....by 11:30am, hee hee. And where did we go? To McDonald's. Our first family outing. What a precious memory. Well, we are discovering the joys of parenting 2 instead of 1. We are not outnumbered yet, but why does it seem so much more difficult? We are loving it and cherishing every moment of the short time we have with Joe.

I think Sam will miss him, already. He is very aware of where Joe is at all times. He says why crying, ma? why crying? I am in the baby lounge and Joe is with me. Dad and Sam are in the room. Sam is sleeping (so is daddy, don't kid yourself). Joe loves the vibrating bouncy seat. To be quite honest, he has been in it for about 20 min. This is probably the most content he has been thus far. He eats pretty well and rests well, but in between we are hearing his tiny little voice a lot.

We are already so in love with him. He has to melt your heart eyes and a tiny nose, precious lips, and cute little ears. His hands and feet are so much smaller than Sam's ever were. We also found out yesterday that he was 4.5 lbs at birth, tiny little man. He had smiled a couple of times and we surely treasure those smiles.

Happy one day late birthday to Baby Colton, he was one year old yesterday. He is our friends Hanna and Dave's son. Thanks to Kia, my faithful blog reader and to Melissa who called our room this am to chat. It was good to hear a familiar voice! November 9th didn't used to mean a lot to me, but now is is one of the days that we met our son for the first time. Special times.
