It has been a crazy couple of days, but so amazing!
We weren't getting any sleep as Baby Robert refused to sleep even a minute at night. Every time I would put him down, he would startled himself and wake up screaming. Thank goodness we figured out that he needs to be double swaddled and last night he slept from 3:30AM to 9:30AM. We just got up, he ate like a champ and now we are just relaxing.
DH has been amazing this past week. He has never been comfortable around newborns -he likes more when kids are active because he says little babies make him nervous). He has been SO amazing with the baby. Last night I came into the living room to him reading the baby Goodnight Moon and it was so adorable.
We are off to the pediatrician today and maybe to go see my grandparents (My grandfather isn't in good enough shape to make it up to our place).
We received a few of our newborn pics already from yesterday. If you are interested in seeing baby pictures-post your email and I'll send them over this afternoon.
Hope everyone has a good day!

Wow, so glad to hear sleep is going better! Do you have any swaddleme blankets? Here is the link, we have 3 that we rotate between washes. They make middle of the night diaper changes SO much better! I believe BRU carries them in store too.
