Keeping the pictures coming...

We have been having so much fun with our new little man. We are starting to get into a groove with QB's feeding and sleeping schedule (he sleeps all the time!), and some nights I even manage to get 8 hours of sleep (broken up of course). We think he may have been measured wrong the night he was born because at his first doctor's appointment, Quincy had grown 2.75 inches! I couldn't believe it! Then again, maybe that's normal - he was totally squished inside me. The pediatrician says that it's just fine. He is back to his birth weight, and is super long and lean (he loves to stretch). He makes the greatest faces, and I could listen to him breath and "purr" all day long - his noises melt our heart. Big fur brother Forrest is starting to love Quincy a little more every day - always checking on us during feedings and sleeping extra close at night. He even barks at outside noises more often that he used to - definitely showing that he is the protector of our house. We are having a great time!

Here are some more pictures of the last week or so...

The first 3 weeks...

It's hard to believe that tomorrow, on New Year's Eve, Quincy will be 3 weeks old. Time certainly flies when you have a newborn - obviously, I haven't updated the blog in 2 weeks. But I FINALLY got the "New Years" cards in the mail today (since Christmas came and went), and I wanted to share more of the excitement on the blog, since hopefully more people will be reading it soon!

As I said in my previous post, we are truly appreciative of all the love and attention we have received with Quincy's arrival. This little boy has easily met 100 people in the first 3 weeks of his life. So I wanted to post pics of the people who made his transition into this world possible, and then (almost) all the beautiful faces that he has seen since Day one.
