Day 11 and Growing

Can't believe it's already the middle of July and Judah is 11 days old already! This morning we went to the pediatrician's office for a quick weigh-in. The nurse said he should be gaining 1/2 - 1 oz. per day. Well, Judah has gained 10 oz. in the last week! The doc peeked his head in for a second and said Judah is doing great.

Noah and I have also been doing well, trying to adjust to all of the new changes and challenges of being parents of a newborn. We have actually been averaging 5-6 hours of sleep per night (not counting a nap or two during the day). It's been a little tricky getting him to sleep when we're ready to get to bed, but that seems to be getting better in the last several days. I think we're slowly getting the hang of this "parenting" thing. :)

We have REALLY appreciated everyone checking in on us, and some friends and church people bringing by meals. Those are a huge help! It's kind of funny being on the receiving end of the meals after being on the coordinating end for a while. I think God is teaching me how to receive. It's been a good opportunity for me to grow in that area. Pretty neat how that works.

Noah has one more week off from work after this week - time is flying by. I go back to work in mid-August (I have 6 weeks total off). Then I'll be bringing Judah to work with me. Hopefully that will work out well.

Here are some more videos and pictures for everyone to enjoy... hope to see you all soon!

Love and hugs,

Noah, Krista & Baby Judah








We have more pictures on the way... keep checking back! :)
