Is he asleep or awake?
"I'm hungry mom!"
Chilling on Dad's lap
Beckett is already so well mannered.
Finally I've got this whole mothering thing figured out well enough to find a few minutes to get back on this computer and let you know how I'm doing. It's been so long since I've published anything on here...Nathan has done a fabulous job of keeping everyone updated.
So...life is great! I love being a mom. It is the best job in the world. That may have something to do with the fact that I have a great baby who sleeps a lot and rarely fusses. He pretty much just sleeps and eats. But he is 'thriving'. His two week check up was on Wednesday and he now weighs in at 10Ibs 3oz, and is 23 inches long. He's in the 99th percentile for length.
My recovery has gone remarkably well...I remember sitting in the hospital the day after he was born thinking, 'man...how am I going to do this all by myself...I can't even get out of bed.' However, the body knows what it's doing, and a couple days after being home I was feeling like my normal self (with an extra few pounds added on). Every day gets better and we're getting into more of a routine as Beckett learns his nights from days.
It has been so great to have Rachell here. She is doing so well...has found two jobs and continues to amaze me with her independence. She is a very brave girl (she braved the student ward all by herself, walked around LA and found two jobs, and has made several friends already). She is also a great help to me. I appreciate all of her love and her support!
My whole family is in LA this weekend. Last night Tyler, Juliana, Beth and Dillon got here and Mom and Dad arrive tonight. I am so excited to have them here and I'll be sure to post some pictures of the weekend. I was so excited for them all to meet little Beckett, and right now I'm most excited to see my Daddy holding my baby.
Anyway, here are a few updated pictures for you all to see. I'm also including the one I took right before I delivered. This was the peak of my biggness...can you believe there is almost a 10 pounder in there!?!?!?
