More Baby

Our first day home The proud big sister
Getting ready for bed
Grandma Erickson
First introduction to big brother and sister
Seeing mom for the first time in the hospital
What a whirlwind week it has been! I can't believe that Issac is almost 1 week old already! Sorry the pictures have been a little slow in coming. We've been a little busy adjusting to life with a newborn again.
Holly was able to come home on Thursday evening. Her "numb bum" couldn't handle the hospital bed for another night! Recovery is going really well and the kids have been wonderful little helpers. It has been so fun to watch them become more comfortable being around Issac. We were a little nervous at first but they are doing great.
Issac is such a mellow baby! He has allowed us to sleep for 6 hours straight at night--maybe he knows just how much his mama needs the rest to recover! However, Holly's chest isn't so grateful! No explanation needed on that one.
We feel so blessed as a family for the wonderful love and support that has been shown to us by family and friends. We don't know how we would have been able to pull this off on such short notice if we didn't have such an incredible support system. THANK YOU!!!!!!

He is such a beautiful baby, Holly! Congrats! He has such delightfully chubby cheeks. I bet you spend a lot of time kissing them. Lots of love from our family to yours. Laura & David

He is so cute! I am so excited for you guys. Abby and Jaxon are both getting so big too, its so crazy. I hope he continues to allow you guys to get at least six hours of sleep straight if not more :)I can't wait to see more pictures and hear more about how he and the other kids are growing. Love and miss you all! PS, I need your address, I have a little something for the little man...

Not only is little Issac adorable, your whole family is! I'm glad you're doing well and he's letting you get some sleep at night! :)

Congrats on the 6 hours of sleep! What a beautiful good baby. I am glad you are home and doing so well. (I think a week behind on updating your blog after just having a kid is quite amazing!!!)
