A whole new life...


Well, it is settling in a little more... life will never be the same. This isn't a bad thing, and we expected this to be the case, but it is now really settling in. We love our little Peter Allen. He is the best thing that ever happened to our little family, but things sure do change when you add a little one.


We are getting used to getting up a few times each night, taking turns changing diapers, and claening up spit-up. We are getting better at preventing Peter from peeing on us every time we change him. We are excited that his umbilical cord fell off this week and that he is gaining weight. We love his little gas smiles and all the grunting noises he makes. Who knew that such things would consume our thoughts all day every day.


David started his summer Chemistry class last week and started working summer school this week. He is a busy guy... I'm not sure how he does it. This means, however, that I am at home alone with this little baby who is not quite three weeks old! It was a little overwhelming at first but we are getting the hang of it.


We are learning a lot and love to watch Peter grow. We can't wait till he can give us real smiles and laugh and play!

He is so cute, Yvonne! I'm glad that it's finally settling in for you...I hear it can be quite the adjustment in the beginning.

You guys are the best! I love the new look of your blog. I'm all about it. I can hardly wait to see your new little one this weekend. Love you and the best to you!

The first couple of months with a new baby takes some getting used to, but I promise, it does get easier. Take advantage of the fact that you both still have family in town. I would've loved the support when I was trying to adjust too. I am so happy for you and David. A baby really does change everything~
