We are adjusting well to life with Joel. He is a fairly laid back little dude, which makes it less stressful and more enjoyable.
My mom and sister have been out to visit and take care of us. It has been such a blessing to have family that will come cook and clean for us so that we can enjoy Joel-time. Granted they don't mind as much because as soon as I say, I'm going to take a nap - they grab him up and snuggle.
We have trouble with napping during the day. He prefers to sit up and wave instead.
But when he naps, he sleeps like a rock. He likes for his arms to be out of the swaddler so he can prop them beside his head. Several times recently I have spotted Andrew and Joel sleeping just like this - wonder where he gets that from.
Aunt B finally had the chance to sit down and read a magazine - but she wouldn't put little man down. She also thought he needed to be covered by a blanket so I wouldn't notice that she was holding him.
"CiCi, I really like this hat you made for me but do I have to wear these pants?"
And yet another person he likes to sleep on. He has his daddy wrapped around his little (but very long) fingers.
Our first real bath! He actually really enjoyed it - although the deer in headlights look might suggest otherwise. He didn't cry or fuss at all!
Finally - Tucker loves little man. He has to check on him all the time. He couldn't stand not being in the room while Joel was enjoying his bath.
Protecting little brother is hard work.
