Isaac is one week old!

Isaac turned one week old yesterday!

So what has he been up to in his first week?  Isaac was in the hospital for the minimal amount of time - 26 hours, and then we were released to go home.  Here are Isaac and Daddy getting in some good cuddle time!

J-Ma and Papa Pete brought Elsie and Duncan to meet Isaac on Tuesday.  They were both so excited!  Elsie got to hold Isaac first.

Such a proud big sister!

Duncan was excited to "hold him" too!

Isaac ate well and slept most of the time we were in the hospital.

Once we got home, Elsie and Isaac got to cuddle even more!  I love how Isaac is already smiling with his big sister!

And at home, he still ate and slept well his first week!

Every once in a while, Elsie lets someone else hold Isaac!  Finally Papa Pete gets to hang out with Isaac while he is awake!

And J-Ma was happy to hold Isaac in the mornings so Mommy could get dressed!

Grandpa and Grandma came for a visit over the weekend.  Judging by Isaac's face, I think he has already been warned about Grandpa's crazy stories!

Grandma was as excited as Elsie to hold Isaac!

But I think Issac's sleepiness rubbed off on Grandma!

Papa Pete helped get Isaac comfy in Elsie's lap, and Duncan climbed up on the couch to be part of the fun.

Three beautiful, happy children!!

"Duncan turn hold Isaac."  Duncan is surprisingly interested in Isaac.  When Duncan sees Isaac, he gets a huge smile on his face, and comes over to be close to him.  Although in this picture, I think even Duncan is a little suspicious of Isaac's spit-up!  Oh yes - Isaac likes to spit up just like his older siblings!

Cheese!

Mommy was able to spend some quality time "socializing" with Isaac yesterday.  (A big thinks to J-Ma and Papa Pete for entertaining Elsie and Duncan!)

When he is awake, Isaac is moving his arms and legs around, trying to look around at the room.  He has already been on a few adventures outside the house, including a walk, an afternoon at the pool, and a trip to the park.

So far, Isaac is a wonderful baby.  He sleeps for much of the night, only waking up 1-2 times, and easily falling back asleep.  When he is awake, he is not too fussy, and he has no problem hanging out with lots of noise, from both our family and from all of the construction on our block right now!  Feeling so blessed to have such a wonderful family!
