Life with the newborn

Two weeks have passed since Teagan arrived and we’re slowly getting back into the groove, if there is a such thing.  We’re up for the majority of the night with her..still.  She loves to just graze and do a lot of grunting and groaning in the wee hours of the morning.  I honestly don’t remember when babies start sleeping longer during the night.  We think she has her days and nights a little screwed up.  But then again, who knows.  I know things are different this time because I’m nursing her and she eats much more often than a formula-fed baby.

Hailey is adjusting to life as a big sister.  She doesn’t want much to do with Teagan…yet.  She’s more concerned with making sure she’s getting as much, of not more attention from us than the baby.  We’re all getting used to the change.

The other day, we celebrated Eric’s 31st birthday.  Just the four of us (six, if you include the cats).

I just love how that picture turned out of Eric with his girls.  He just adores them.

I’ll post about the birth experience soon.  It’s a good thing I “Tweeted” my birth, otherwise, I may not remember everything.  Still sort of in a fog.

  1. The picture turned out great!! I love this little family. Hope to see you guys soon. :-)

  2. Congrats on your new arrival. I just LOVE his name. It was on our short list for our newest son (Dash).
