Experiences

Tomorrow Nicholas will be two weeks old. Unbelievable. Our days have been busy and we are adjusting to the new addition to our family. Mom and dad were here for a week, which was terrific. I don't know how we would have gotten by without all of their help around the house. Plus, I think it was great timing -- they arrived the day we left the hospital, and got to spend a good deal of time with their three grandsons on the Pedersen side.

I've been thinking about all of the things Nicholas has experienced for the first time during his first days on earth. The list is endless -- is it any wonder he's so tired all of the time??? Imagine, his first...

meal
glimpses of the world
breath
dirty diaper
clothes change
meeting with his brothers
meeting with his maternal grandparents
meeting with his parents
walk in his buggy
pee all over mommy
nap
bath
hiccups
etc etc etc.

Anyway, here are some photos... Have a GREAT day!!!!
