I can't believe my itty bitty Quinn is 3 weeks old today! Those weeks flew by and I didn't even do anything but stay home!
He went for a 3 week check up...which will count as his one month appointment. He is weighing in at 7lb 9 oz so above his birth weight. This is also up from the 6 lbs 8 oz he was when he left the hospital. So I guess my milk is good! He is still nursing great and saving us a bunch of money! He will still feed for about an hour each time, but hopefully he will not be as sleepy soon so I get more sleep! I am half way through the tough 6 weeks of nursing...I just keep thinking of that and I know I'll make it! He is slowing starting to sleep in his bassinet...i think its going to take some time to get him used to it. He goes about half the night and then ends up with us. Its better than nothing! Quinn will be starting with vitamins as soon as I get to the store to get them!
My recovery is finally so much better! I can actually move and get comfy in bed. I could still use more sleep as any mom can attest too!
Avery is doing ok...he seems to be adjusting well and once we are back on a schedule I'm sure it will be better for him. Avery's iron level is up a little, but he is still on the supplements.
We went out for the first time shopping this past friday. We had a diaper explosion at Kohl's and I actually nursed in public...well kinda. It was in the dressing room. I have a small fear of REALLY doing it out in the open. But one of these days I'll have to do it and just get over it! Right now he is still little and I'm still new so we are still learning it! I was glad my mom and sister went with us. Avery was a bit rambuctious but over all he was very good! After riding in the car for 1.5 hours, you'd be active too! Plus we had lunch he had to sit through as well. Quinn slept most of the time.
We got family pictures done 2 weeks ago and they came out fabulous! If you would like to see them let me know as they are on a special website!
Well I guess that's all I can write today as Quinn conviently has woken up!

glad to hear things are going well for you and your little guys!
At least your mom and holly were with you when the diaper explosion happened, I couldn't imagine cleaning that along with handling a 2 year old... miss you so much!
