Pics and Update

Things in the Phillips house are moving right along. Quinn is doing well. The nursing thing has gone pretty well I think. I am very thankful and feel like its been a pretty easy process for us so far. He know what to do and if I can keep him awake, he does it well. He's eating a little more at each feeding and even decides to open his eyes a few times a day. He is terribly gassy which is pretty uncomfortable to him, but he's rockin' right a long. He's gotten lots of cuddle time. I've enjoyed that so much. Thanks to my mom who has been here to pretty much take care of all things Kanyon, its allowed me to get to sit and hold my little one when I want to! :)

Kanyon is doing well. He is eating good and sleeping good. He for sure is having more "fits" and has a harder time than usual accepting NO, but that is all a part of this transition (and living with other people in our house) and I'm sure he'll settle in.

I feel good. I feel like its taken forever, but I guess I just forgot about the whole recovery thing. Every day I'm a little closer to normal and today I sneezed and didn't die from pain in my stomach, so that is good. Sleep is happening in 1-2 hour "naps" at night, but so far I feel fine.

Kory's parents and one of his brothers will be here Wednesday and we can't wait to see them and enjoy Christmas with them.

Here are a few pictures from the last week.

qsp had his eyes open, but I like klp in the background: " Uhhh Mom, I'm right here, why are you taking a picture of THAT?"



sweet Quinn with his eyes open
klp is enjoying all of the baby things.

Quinn was a little bit jaundice, but not enough to do anything, so we spent some time in front of the window sunbathing!





lovin' on baby brother


my boys
we skyped Kory's parents so they could "see" Quinn. It gave them a little something to hold them over til they get here.


Oh man, how sweet is this?
We go to the Dr. tomorrow for his 2 week check up. Hopefully he's packed on some weight. We'll see.
