Another Family-Filled Weekend



My dad and step-mom came to visit our new family over the weekend. It was nice to share our little blessing with more family.

We enjoyed time talking together and a nice ham dinner here at home. The weather has gotten cold already. I'm not looking forward to another Minnesota winter especially now having another person to load into the car.

Joshua didn't mind company. He stuck to his routine. On Saturday I did get a little concerned about how much Joshua was sleeping. I guess we should be counting our blessings since he's such a good sleeper. He would sleep all day and all night if I would let him. Michael looked up more information about sleepy babies. The main thing that we found out was that the concern with sleepy babies is that they don't get enough to eat because they would rather sleep than eat. I have been waking Joshua up to feed him every three hours during the day if he doesn't wake himself. At night time all the sources that we read said to leave him be. He sleeps for roughly 6 hours at a time at night. I wake up to check on him and/or pump in the middle of the night otherwise I'm too uncomfortable by morning.
