Deacon's first week

I cannot believe Deacon is a week old already, it went soo fast. He is such a great baby. We have hardly heard him cry. He eats often, but that's ok because he is a great eater and nursing is going well. He is also a very good sleeper, he has given me 3-4 hour segments every night. I can do that! When we went to the pediatrician Deacon had gained three ounces in two days. Doc said everything else looked great!
My Dad and sister were here from Thursday until Sunday and my mom is leaving this evening. It was great to have them here and the extra help was fantastic. Tony had a pretty crazy week with work, so he had to be gone a lot, so the extra help was much appreciated.
Zoe has definitely had the hardest time adjusting to the new schedule and family member. She loves her baby brother and is really good with him. She loves to hold him for a few minutes at a time, but she has been acting up a lot. Many time outs and loss of movie time and candy. She is talking so much and it is hilarious, but the attitude is scary. She is going back to day care tomorrow to give her some routine and me and Deacon a little alone time:) I think once we get into a routine her attitude will improve.

A new album of the first week has been added to Shutterfly.
