It's been 4 weeks already

I cannot believe Jackson has been in our lives for 4 weeks already. I still feel like my entire pregnancy went by in a blur, and now the little boy we created is almost 1 month old!

Things in our house are starting to fall into place. Of course Scott leaving for the week on business didn't help, but we're managing. Jackson was even nice on me last night and only woke once at 3:30am. It was heaven!!!

Jackson finally had his first bath last week and he's had a couple more since then, so far he doesn't seem to mind them. Thank goodness for that! He has a nasty case of baby acne, so we're anxiously awaiting that to go away. Colin still seems to like his little brother - he helps out so much. A few days ago I was fixing Jackson a bottle, and Jackson was crying, so while I put the formula back in the cupboard, Colin took the bottle and started feeding Jackson. It was so cute! Of course I grabbed the camera:


On a sad note, my inlaws are moving to Louisiana today - my father-in-law's job was transferred down there. We said our VERY emotional goodbyes last night :-( My mother-in-law has been a huge support for me since having Jackson and I'm going to miss her more than I can say. They have been a huge part of Colin's life, seeing him about 4-5 days a week, so it's going to be hard on them to not see him regularly. They said goodbye to him last night, but then called this morning and asked if they could have him over for 2-3hrs before they left. And of course I let them. I wish they didn't have to go, but this is life.

Anyways, here's some recent pics of me and the kiddos - sorry the pic of me and Colin is so blurry:

Aww, Colin is being such a good big brother.

I'm so sorry about your inlaws moving... that would be such a hard adjustment! :(
