Bill and Miss (and Jacob too) Welcome to our Blog

Today you are 25 days old! I can't believe you've been in our lives for over three weeks. I can't imagine life without you now. It seems like you've been in our lives forever! Your daddy and I love you so much and have learned so much about you already! The day you were born was the best day of both of our lives. You were 3 weeks early so we weren't expecting you that day and were surprised when my water broke. I wasn't sure what was going on. When you were born all of your family was there to welcome you into the world. But not before your daddy and I were able to bond with you for about an hour. In the past three weeks, we have bonded even more with you. For the first 2 weeks of your life you made us laugh when you gave us your "popeye" face. Everytime you are hungry and mommy is about to feed you, you make a "hehehehe" noise that makes mommy laugh. We love when you make all your faces when you are just waking up or just after you've eaten. You are such a good baby. The only time you cry is when you are getting your diaper changed and when you took a sponge bath. Then on Tuesday we gave you a bath in the baby tub and you really liked it. Your back was always touching the warm water and you just kicked back and enjoyed the bath. You seem to sleep better when you have taken a bath, so daddy and I are tempted to give you a bath every night, but we don't want to dry out your skin too much. Everytime we've given you a bath and we wrap you up in the towel, you "shart" in the towel. There is only a little spot of poop, but it makes us laugh. Sometimes when you change your diaper, there is only a little bit of poopy, so we know you shart all the time:) When you do poopoo you make really loud noises from your bottom. Your papa laughs really hard when he hears you poop. It makes all of us laugh. The other day mommy was changing you on the bed and you shot out some poopoo right onto mommy's legs. You made me laugh out loud but there was no one there to share the experience with. Nani and Papa vist almost every other day. They miss you a lot when they don't see you. Grandma and Grandpa can't visit that often, but they call to see how their baby grandson is doing all the time. All your grandparents love you so much! Everyone loves you!
Today we tried taking a walk to Starbucks, but we left at the wrong time and you cried the whole time in the stroller so we got to the corner and turned around. You are extra hungry today. You at more than every 2 hours today, but last night you went 5 hours in between feedings, and you would have probably gone longer, but mommy woke up at 3 am and realized she needed to feed you. Today mommy left you for the first time. I went to Albertsons to buy food for mommy and daddy. I was gone for an hour and left you alone with daddy. When I got home, you and daddy were in the same position as when I left you. I missed you so much when I was gone!
