My first week











What a week it has been! Gavin is adusting to his new home and family, while the rest of us are still adjusting to our new sleeping patterns and arrangements. (Any advice?!) Even Kodi needs a break and better sleep; the top of the stairs is as far away from his little brother as he will go. Gavin is getting bigger every day and starting to look more like his mom and dad. On Monday night, Kristin had be to rushed to the ER as a result of some bleeding problems post-partum; no worries now, mommy is doing very well and on her way to a full recovery. On Tuesday, when we all got home from the hospital, Gavin had his first doctors appointment. He passed with flying colors and is almost back to his weight when he left the hospital. April 10 was Gavin's 1 week birthday. On Thursday morning, dad and mom discovered that Gavins umbilical cord is almost completely gone; still searching for that elusive last piece in the blankets!

Little Mister is more adorable everyday. Gee whiz he looks big lying stretched out on a bed. He is going to be a tall drink of water...will probably have legs that go all the way from here to the ground (like Mommy?). I can't wait to see him. Advice for sleep needed? When he sleeps, you do too! Gavin's tummy is growing fast and the good part about that is that it can hold more, therefore can tide him over for longer stretches of time. The sleep deprivation is a serious challenge but this too shall ease then pass. It just takes time. I hope there are no more probs with Kristin's recovery. Please, "Martha", don't try to do too much too fast!
All our love, the Olsons
