Drew's favorites!

We did it!

We survived a big NYC trip with a 3 week old and a 4 year old! (with the help of Annie and Cito) Drew got to see his favorites from "Night at the Museum" to all of the tall buildings and I got to dance in NYC for my birthday! Drew loved everything from the planes to the taxis to Central Park to the orange juice in the mini bar in the hotel! He was overly excited about EVERYTHING!!!! He even picked up a little elevator ettiquette as he would hold his arm in front of the doors while people were getting on! When we left he put the hotel room key in his pocket to keep just in case we went back. (Then, of course, he lost the key on the plane cause he was playing with it.) And when we got home last night he asked if I was going to get him dressed and wake him up early and pick him up and put in the car in the morning to go back to New York. (Our flight last Sunday was at 7 am so I already had him dressed when we left the house at 4:45 am!!!) As far a MR goes, he enjoyed sleeping in NYC as much as he enjoys sleeping here in Austin!!! He especially loved the littel sling and could sleep for hours as long as we were walking around.

What "To Do List"???????

The world stood still last Friday when both boys were actually asleep at the same time while we were in the car. They even stayed asleep for a couple of more hours once we got home...What "To Do List"? I laid right on that couch and took a nap too...yes, that was the one and only blistfull sleep I can remember!

One Week

Today was a pretty good day! We ventured out by ourselves (mom + the boys) with dad at work. M.R. had his first Dr. appointment. The Dr. didn't even test his biliruben or his blood sugar because he thought he looked pretty good and M.R. is gaining the proper weight like he should. Drew was the perfect big brother-while we were there. At other times in the day he's struggling a little bit...but for the most part...he acts like his new job in life is to just take care of his brother. He lets us know when he spits up and runs to get a washcloth, he stayed up late last night while M.R. was eating so he could check on him, and-best of all-he was up with me at the 5 am feeding making sure he was okay! This is all on top of the hundreds of kisses during the day. He told me this afternoon- randomly- that he was "so, so, so, sooo, sosososososososo happy" that he has a baby brother. We also had received good news when we found out dad doesn't have to go on his big work trip tomorrow!!! We get him for another week!

First bath!

Let's play "Drew or MR?"

Home at Last!

M.R. was finally cleared...barely, but he was cleared! It's good to be home after almost a week!!!
