The first week!

We were so glad to be home! We had tons of visitors wanting to see Mack. The first night was rough! We had company until late but we sent everyone away thinking that we would be fine for the night. We ended up ok but it was very difficult for mommy! I was nursing and we was not wanting to eat. I cried almost all night but it did get better. The next night my mom, Mack's Granna, spent the night with us. Even though she spent the night I couldn't stand the thought of him being away from me all night so I let her take him upstairs about 4:00 that morning so we could get some sleep.

He has found his favorite place on the couch

Sweet Baby

First car ride since coming home from the hospital! 

The first week we just watched him sleep. He still had not opened his eyes at all. We had a pack and play in our bedroom that had the newborn sleeper on it. He hated the newborn sleeper because it made him ball up. We also tried to swaddle him while he slept, and that didn't work either. When we wrapped him up he cried and cried. When I finally unwrapped him he burped and he was so relieved! This baby liked to stretch out!! He had a favorite spot on the couch that he loved to sleep in because he could be the center of attention while stretching out and getting comfortable! He is wearing size 1 diapers already. The nurses in the hospital put him in size 1 so thats what we stuck with. None of the 0-3 month clothes fit! Everybody said, "he is going to be a big baby!" So I never thought that he would be able to wear the few newborn sized outfits that we had but we actually had to go out and buy more newborn outfits! We left the house for the first time to go to his 1 week appointment. We saw Dr. Chupp and he said that Mack was perfect! Mack weighed 7 pounds and 13 ounces, which meant that he hadnt gained or lost any weight since we left the hospital! yay mommy! After the doctor we went to see Pop at Bonds Appliance and we went to eat at Outlaw Steak House. His first trip out of the house went great but we were ready to be home that afternoon!
