The First Week

It took three tries, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that we finally got our easy baby! Of course, as soon as I say that, Naomi will turn into the terror of all terrors. But even if that's the case, given our track record for first weeks at home (Justin = hospital re-admittance for dehydration; Jasmine = constipation and a constant fight to feed).. we'll take a full first week of harmony; even if that's all we get. Once we saw that she was latching properly at the hospital, we should've suspected that Miss Naomi Janelle would be our first baby to do everything by the book (eat, sleep, poop, eat sleep, poop... wake time... repeat cycle). It's a beautiful thing. Meanwhile, Thing 1 and Thing 2 took forever to figure out the breast feeding thing, let alone the rest of the equation. But I guess they turned out alright. They just drove us crazy in the process.

Anyhow, the point is that things are well here at home. We're all adjusting to our new norms (and there are plenty of 'em) and Naomi is doing her part in keeping everyone smiling. Bundle of Joy number 3 has been exactly that. As a matter of fact, I think we'll keep her.
