Happy One Month!!

I can't believe that our little Mason is already a month old today. I sure am happy to be past the first couple of weeks though. I feel that they are the hardest part of having a baby. Everyone is starting to get on somewhat of a schedule and the sleep is slowly but surely getting better. Korina is definitely in love with her baby brother and sometimes we just have to tell her to give him some space because she kind of smothers him at times. We love when he is awake and just stares into our eyes and we've even gotten a couple smiles already. He is such a sweet baby and we are so lucky to have him in our family.

Korina has also been keeping us busy. And by that I mean she doesn't really listen when we ask her to do something and so we have to get mad and she ends up crying. I'm sure it's because there is a new baby in the house, but also just the fact that she is trying to be an independent 2 year old! She is still our little princess, we just can't let her know it! Whenever she comes downstairs from sleeping, she insists on bringing her blanket and each one of her friends. It makes us a little nervous for her safety. This was what I found one night at 10:00 just as we were about to go to bed.

She still loves Mickey Mouse and her new favorite movie is Rio. She loves when the birds dance. And she is always asking for a cold treat which is an otter pop. She can't get enough!

2 Weeks!

So our little man isn't so little anymore. It's already been two weeks since we first met him, and he is growing like a weed! Even the doctor was pretty shocked. He informed us that by the 2 week mark, they like to see the babies get back up to their birth weight. Well, Mason pretty much shattered that number (6 lb. 15 oz.), and he is already up to 8lb. 8 oz.!! And he has grown an inch in length. I guess a normal amount for babies to be eating at each feeding is around 2-2 1/2 oz of milk, and Mason usually eats about 4! We're not sure what to think about our little chunk, we are just happy that he is a healthy little boy. Here is a picture of him dressed up for a wedding reception that we went to. He is so handsome!

He's Here!!!

Our precious little boy is finally here and we are so excited. He was born on Tuesday, August 30 at 1:33am. He was 19" and 6 lb 15 oz.

And he looks just like Korina did when she was born so we're pretty sure that they are related.

Korina just loves her little brother.

It's definitely been an adjustment from one child to two, especially because Colby is right in the middle of moving the factory up to Clearfield, so he hasn't been able to be home as much as he was with Korina. Luckily, Mason is a great baby and he is super cute, so it makes it a little easier to get up in the night. Also, this delivery was easier than Korina's, so I feel like I'm getting back to normal a little bit faster. I only had to push for 5 minutes! I couldn't ask for a better delivery. I will try and post a little more often since I know all too well how fast he is going to grow up.
