Well, Hudson and I survived our first week just the two of us at home!
I realized I had gotten too spoiled with Cliff being home first thing on Monday morning when he wasn't there to entertain Hudson while I went back to sleep after his 6AM feeding. But, it wasn't anything a little giant cup of coffee didn't fix. 
We had a pretty busy week for his second week of life. On Monday we had a follow up appointment back at the hospital. This was my first time driving HJT alone so I was a little nervous but luckily he slept through the whole thing, including the appointment and the ride back home. On Tuesday he had his 2 wk appointment at the pediatrician where he weighed 9 lbs 1 oz and is 20 inches (75th percentile). I'm pretty sure Cliff is already planning what position he'll be playing in football. 

Sleeping through his appointment 



Missi is obsessed. 

Wednesday we snuggled all day.
On Thursday my heart was so full to have my grandparents come in for the afternoon to meet him. I feel beyond blessed to have grown up knowing both sets of my grandparents and great-grandparents and I'm so happy for Hudson to be able to know his too. My Mom-Mom and Dad-dad used to actually live in Brentwood and I miss them being so close all the time. But we're glad they're only about 2 hrs away so that they're able to come have visits like this. 



On Friday we had workers in and out so we snuggled all day again :) I did finally give in and put in him in his crib for a nap so that I could lay down and he did great. I had to wake him up after 3 hrs to eat! 


I'm loving spending my days with him and watching him grow which he's doing way too fast! I'm already seeing his face start to fill out and look less like a brand new baby. He's starting to stay awake for longer periods at a time during the day and he loves to look around. Tomorrow we're going to take him to pick out his first pumpkin! Or to hangout in his moby while Cliff and I pick one for him :)
