Soooo, its been a awhile huh??

Isaac is 7 weeks old today. And we are finally getting adjusted. Its still not easy but its getting better everyday.

I have become very good at doing most things one handed...like typing, laundry, cooking, cleaning, etc. I am no longer afraid to leave the house and am (are you all ready for this??) going to the grocery store when I'm done with the computer!! But really we are all progressing by leaps and bounds. Daddy is great at providing respite as soon as he gets home. He is a fabulous diaper changer at any hour day or night and regardless of cloth or disposable. He'll tell you he hasn't been peed on but he's lying . And Isaac, my goodness, he is changing so much every day. He is so alert. He never misses anything. He makes eye contact and his big blue eyes follow you around the room. He is smiling socially and even laughing during play. And thankfully he's sleeping better since me and Grammy Carmen "flipped" him!

I'm trying to figure out his routine as I am going to be heading back to work soon and will be leaving Izzy with Grammy Lana and Daddy on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays 3-11...

I'm still breastfeeding and obviously doing a great job making milk because this guy is already weighing 13 lbs 10 oz (as of his 2 month check up today)!! Can you believe he's gained almost 5 lbs since he was born 7 weeks ago?!?! The rest of his visit with the pediatrician went well. They think he may have eczema and asked me to cut back on his tub baths to once a week. I'm not surprised since I have it but I was hoping it was just a heat rash...

Anyway...I've joined a mother's group at the library and a breastfeeding support group at the hospital AND we've been invited to join a local playgroup so we are becoming very popular... the days we are busy are the nights he sleeps best so whatever it is...sign us up (as long as its free)!

Check out the newest pictures of Isaac and I'll try to write again soon

PS. the turtle has made no progress...
