Our first week of being parents…

I was released from the hospital last sunday- which made me really nervous, because I didn’t feel strong enough to do much for myself or Braden yet, but at home I had 2 grandma’s and Dean to help me out, so I decided to just go home.
The first night was a nightmare. In the hospital he was a perfect angel, and when we got him home, he turned into a little monster, that cried the entire night. We later realized it was because he wasn’t getting enough to eat (poor little thing). I tried giving him a binkie to calm him, but that just made things worse!
Anyway, after that first night, things have been great! He is so placid and calm, and now only cries when he’s hungry! He let’s out a little pterodactyl squawk and I know it’s time to feed him! It’s really funny. So far being a Mum is a lot easier than I ever imagined it would be- but it’s only because I have been blessed with such an easy kid that sleeps non stop!
Anyway, Dean and I are just loving being parents, and think Braden is just the cutest thing ever!
