Alex update

Well, we have had our little man home for a week now. Things are going well. He came home weighing 6 lbs 4 ozs and he now weighs 6lbs 10 ozs. So that is good. His dr. has checked him out twice and said that he looks great. He is feeding every 3 hours so that keeps up mighty busy. He is either perfectly content or screaming. There usually is not an in between mode for him. :)

I am doing much better. My back does not hurt nearly as badly but I am suffering from head aches. But, over all I am making progress. I will be happy when the weather warms up so we can go outside as a family.

Kasey and Bo are adjusting nicely. They just sniff him and walk away. Kyle is AWESOME!!! He has really taken to this whole father role very naturally. He is my god-send right now. I will be really sad when he goes back to work on Monday. I wish he had a month off!!!

Take care from the Atkins
