Quinn

Life has been busy with a newborn. Sorry I haven't posted more pictures sooner. (I've already taken 150! Think that's a little much?)
We got home from the hospital on Friday, and have just been feeding and sleeping ever since. (well, Quinn is sleeping ... I did manage to get a 3 hour stretch last night)
Today Quinn is 6 days old. He's doing really well. He is an awesome eater, he has gained enough weight to make the doctor's satisfied (yesterday he weighed 7 lb. 3 oz.) and he is a great sleeper. (the trick is the swaddling blanket ... it seriously works) So far I think he is the most laid back baby I've had.I feel like it has taken me longer to feel better this time ... I actually don't really feel better yet. I hope within the next little while I start feeling like I don't hurt.
Quinn smiles ALL the time. And I know people say they can't, but I see at least 10 smiles a day. Some of them are while he's sleeping, so he must have nice dreams. Some of them are when I'm talking to him and he just smiles so big ... it's ADORABLE!!
The girls keep asking when they get to hold him. I think they think he should be their toy. I keep telling them they have to wait to play with him until he's a little older. I LOVE having him here ... he is just the best!

What a cute little guy! I LOVE the picture of him smiling so big! Take care of yourself and get lots of rest (I know it's hard since you have other kids). Hopefully you'll be feeling back to yourself soon!
