One week...

Today is Mac's one week birthday! We seem to be settling in as a family of four and are starting to find a routine. Mac's been sleeping fairly well the last few nights but I still need a good nap during the day. I think it's just my body catching up!

Holly appears to be adjusting and is usually following either Kieth or I around and "helping" us with whatever we're doing at the moment. She's great with Mac and always willing to go get a diaper, wipes, or a new outfit for him. She's very proud to tell people his name and that he's her little brother, "Mac Kenneth."

It's been awesome to have Kieth home. I can believe with Holly he wasn't at home with me all the time! I don't know how I did it without him. He's been diligently working on our yard, trimming bushes and spreading gravel and our place is looking great. He and a friend are building a shed in the back yard and I can't wait to start moving stuff from the garage to the shed and getting more organized.

As for me, I'm feeling awesome and haven't needed any pain medicine since Tuesday, not even an Ibuprofin! Amen! God is good. After two difficult deliveries in my life, God blessed me with one that has been unbelievable.

Here are some "new" pictures of Mac ( I use the term loosely because really, none of them are "old!"). He's getting cuter every minute and melts my heart anytime I look at him or think of him. We are truly blessed!

 So peaceful!

 Probably my favorite picture of him! I love his orange outfit and bright eyes. :)

Wide awake this morning!
