We just can't get enough of this little guy. Life here is good. My body is slowly adjusting to "life after baby" and I think I'm through the worst of it! We went for a post-hospital visit to the pediatrician today to check up on Jude's weight and make sure he's actually getting some food...good news!! He now weighs 9 lbs. Wowza--I knew I wasn't dreaming up his double chin. The doctor was very impressed with my skillzz, which was reassuring after some frustrating times. Other than that, just gotta maintain with all these hormones rushing in my body. Last night I actually cried that he was already (already!) 4 days old and that I wouldn't get to see Dr. Roth anymore, and that there weren't any nurses around to make me my special drink at all hours of the night. Sheesh!
Check out his little conehead.

The nurse taught us this--it's called the "hangman" and it's supposed to wake them up. Jude fell for it the first day, but now just snoozes on through it. Oh I love those little legs.
Much of my time the last few days has been spent in my room--sleeping, then nursing. Thank goodness for camera phones! Imagine my delight when I caught this smile?
Cozy time. So nice.
those memorable outfits are what are making my eyes water! my baby seems like a toddler next to your squirt. crazy what a few extra hormones can do to ya, eh? and i haven't seen him enough yet!!!
