Merry Christmas to Everyone!!! Ben and I received our best Christmas gift ever this year, the birth of our son, Samuel. We were released from the hospital on Wednesday, just in time to be home together as a family for the holiday. Due to the serious weather conditions we had this week, a lot of our family had to drive back home, so it was a small Christmas with Samuel, my mother, Ben and I. Even with this we had a great day just spending time with our favorite gift. This is just one of the many many pictures we took on Christmas of Samuel in his Santa suit. We put Sam in 4 different outfits throughout the day so he could wear all of the cute little holiday outfits that we had gotten for him. We are pretty sure Samuel already thinks his parents are crazy forcing him into all of these outfits and taking tons of pictures, sorry Samuel hopefully when you grow up you will forgive us.
We have been so fortunate to have my mother here with us, it has made the transition home from the hospital a great one and allowed us to really spend time with our son. She has been such a great help, Samuel is so fortunate to have such an amazing grandmother that loves him so much! She is leaving this week and we can't imagine how different it will be without her.Samuel is adjusting well, I got my first present from him while changing his 1st diaper after we got home. He is eating well, and sleeping about 3 hours at a time at night, allowing Ben and I to get pretty good sleep. With each day he is more and more alert, loving to look at the lights on the Christmas tree. We spend most of our days watching him and even fighting to get to be the one to change his diaper (how crazy are we.)
Thank you to everyone for your support and calls over the last week. We will continue to update his blog as he grows.
