One week later

It's been a little over a week now since Xavier came into our lives, and uncountable amounts of dirty diapers later, I can say things are going well. Sonia continues to mend after a truly tough delivery process. She's doing better and better everyday as you can see in the above photo. In fact, it's hard to stop her from doing things around here! She's never been one to just take it easy, but even she has her limits and I'm glad she's letting me do my thing for all of us. Unfortunately, I only have one more week off for "paternity leave", so I'm really trying to ease Sonia's transition from hospital patient to mommy.
Sonny-boy had his first encounter with the pediatrician last thursday. As you can see from the pictures he was a little worse for wear! He was cool though, he was just hungry and tired. This week saw him gain about 4 ounces which is great. Overall, he's in excellent health, but I didn't need a doctor to tell me that. I feed that child, and his appetite is almost as ferocious as his old mans. That's my boy!
check back in. Sonia will be writing as soon as she's up to it!
