A few special shots from the past week. It has been a very full first week of Hope's life and we are all getting adjusted to life as a foursome. Henry has started to identify things and places that are specifically "Henry's" and Shannon and I are doing our best to take care of the kids, the house, the yard/garden and ourselves...in that order. It seems there is always so much to be done. Sleep has actual been fine; Hope and I have fallen into a nice routine. We got word we need to fatten her up a bit today, so we have a goal of 7 ounces by Thursday.
We have had all grandparents visiting (Grandma Linda arrives Wednesday) -- so Henry and Hope have been showered with love. We are feeling really grateful our families are so close.
