It is hard to believe it has already been 3 weeks! I don't even know how that is possible. We have been really busy with visitors, work, school, sleeping and all that comes with a newborn. I didn't think we'd be this busy but right now I am writing this while taking a bath...so that about sums it up. I don't even know if this is safe! ; )
Maxwell is filling out and basically doing all the normal baby things. Of course he is getting cuter each and everyday and looking more like Wesley's baby stage. Overall, it is what you'd expect - with lots of eating, pooping, crying, sleeping and keeping us on our feet. I have watched the Oprah episode about the language of babies like 5 times trying to pin down all of his "requests/cries." Nights are taking on a routine and slowly giving us some comfort as to what to expect, but certainly doesn't make it easy. Shane and I are definitely tired day to day. Tomorrow is my first day solo with the two because Shane is taking an all day bowhunting class. Wish me luck!
There is probably more funny stories to share about Wesley right now. I have walked in on him and Shane brushing their teeth in the dark bathroom with a hunting headlamp on (what!?), Shane giving Wesley a shaving lesson (using a comb) and tonight Shane went to check on Wesley and he was giving one of his babies a bottle and the other was on the potty. He is better at this gig than me. As a matter of fact, in a way to procrastinate going to bed, Wesley has come and given Max hugs and kisses 3 times already tonight. And he just told me that he has room for me to sleep with him - it makes me sad that I haven't given him as much attention as usual. Shane has been extremely kind to spend extra time with Wesley while I just feed, change and hold the baby. We have taken advantage of the nice weather and have taken a walk the last 3 nights. The neighborhood is slowly waking up so we look forward to getting to know more people soon. I am anxious for Wesley to have friends to play with like I started to at that age!!!
I will try my best to post some updated pics soon. That requires a trip to the other computer and a little more time...
