I can't believe that Ethan is already over three weeks old!! He is growing so fast and he should considering how often he wakes me up to eat!! He love tummy time and this time I caught a little smile:)

What do I want to be when I grow up?

The Best Big Brother!!

Tupperware collector?

Stick collector??

Culinary Master??

Doctor (MD or DVM)?

Professional Golfer?

Landscape designer??

Jonathan has been busy being a great big brother. He loves to give Ethan kisses all day long. When he is not busy giving kisses, he is busy trying to decide what he wants to be when he grows up! Basically, "helping" mommy out around the house. He getting to be such a big boy. Which do you think would suit him best??

Ready for Halloween!

Today we are getting ready for Halloween. My mom is leaving tomorrow and we decided to finally take some new family pictures. Unfortunately, Matt is at work today, so we will torture him tonight when he gets home. Jonathan was so sweet sitting with Ethan. He is such a great big brother!!

Time to study!

Jonathan might not have much to say, but he is focusing on his future!! Like father, like son :)

1 week

Yesterday, Ethan was 1 week old! And yes, we have all survived the first week with all of our hair. He is eating great and gaining weight. His jaundice is improving every day and he IS sleeping at night. We usually get up 2-3 times during the night, which could always be worse. We are all happy and healthy! Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers!!

A family of four!

Finally home! We were discharged on Friday from the hospital and came home as a happy family of four. Everyone is still adjusting to feedings, sleeping and sharing of time. Jonathan is doing so well. At first he was really not interested in Ethan and just wanted our attention. Today he acted more interested and even kissed Ethan's toes. Right now we are tired but still one big happy family!!

New Arrival!!

Ethan Christopher Woods was born Wednesday October 7, 2009 at 6:30 pm. He weighed 5 lbs. 13 oz. The labor was difficult because of a faulty epidural, but was fixed minutes prior to delivery. Thank goodness!! He is doing really well and I am feeling pretty good myself. thanks for everyone's prayers!

Being a pregnant mom

Being a pregnant mom hasn't always been very easy. Especially now that my belly is HUGE and Jonathan still wants me to carry him around. I am not complaining, I am going to miss these days at some point. At least in a couple of weeks, my belly wont be in the way as much! But, how could you not want to pick up this sweet little man and snuggle him all day long??

Almost...

So, I am 37.5 weeks pregnant. This picture was taken on Tuesday and was followed by 18 hours of intermittant contractions. After a little excitement came lots of disappointment. Needless to say, I am still pregnant. Maybe it will be sooner than later :)

So... sweet!

We went to the park on Monday. Jonathan and Caleb had so much fun! When they went walking into the grass they insisted on holding hands. They walked around, one of them leading the other. It was so cute! Plus, we didn't plan it, but they are wearing the same shirt. The weather was perfect; fall is great!!
