Finally, some time to post some new pics...

I am feeling particularly well rested today because we got a five hour chunk of sleep last night, with 3 hour chunks following.

He has been a great sleeper for us at night. The last few nights the poor guy was working on some "projects" aka poops and burps, so he has had a hard time getting settled before bed.

But, thankfully his papa has created Poop Camp. Basically, James moves him around in five different positions and he sings a special jingle that is reminiscent of the Madagascar song "Move It" but, its more like "Poop It" until he gets progress--and it actually works! I never thought I would be the parent that would talk about poop, but here I am and I am loving it.

Getting to know our Little Man!

We have been having a blast with Jonah. Each day he is becoming more and more alert--we are seeing more smiles, more sounds (yes, this includes some cries, mainly to tell us he wants the boob, wants to sleep, wants his diaper changed, wants a new position--and beyond that its a mystery)...overall he is becoming more aware of his surroundings. The great news is each day we learn more about what his sounds and cries mean, so we can better help the little guy.




Max Babysits!


This was a great photo opp! Max seems to be taking to the baby quite well--or rather, he could care less about the new addition to our family. This picture was taken after giving Jonah a bath, which he loves! We were trying to get a close up of his curls.

Introducing Jonah Kai Allen!

Finally, he's here! Our lil' guy was a champ and came a day early, weighing in at 8 lbs, 7 oz.

Ladies, watch out!
