One Week Already!

It's amazing how time flies! We can hardly believe that as of last night, Sawyer has been with us for a whole week! It has been so much fun getting to know our little guy the past 7 days. He is so tiny. Everyone who meets him says he looks like a baby doll. He does! His skin is perfect and he is just so cute to look at. We love his wakeful time when we get to play with him. We've found he seems to like music, just like us. Last night we danced him around to the Beatles, which he thoroughly enjoyed. We are very much looking forward to all the days to come with our little son.

When you think about it, it's quite amazing how much newborns learn in such a short period of time. They learn to breathe, eat, smile, cry, use their body for various functions, etc. Tysha is actually feeling amazingly great. She even took Sawyer for his first outing in his Ergo carrier yesterday. It's hard to stay in the house and sit down when the weather is finally nice! But she needs to remember to take it easy a little longer as well :) Sawyer lost his umbilical cord this morning, and the past two nights he slept in 4 hour stretches, which we greatly appreciated. He smiles a lot for a little guy. Maybe he takes after his parents - who both love to smile :)

We thought we'd include a cute video of Sawyer. It's nothing that exciting - just baby. But it's exciting to us, since he's ours! We just can't get enough of him!
