Rub a Dub Dub, Colby is in the Tub!

It has been a wonderful first week with our little Colb! He lost more than 10% of his birth weight, and he was down to 6lb 2oz on Saturday and he was diagnosed with minor jaundice. By Tuesday he was back to gaining weight and the jaundice was getting much better.
Mimi and Auntie Em have been our saving grace! My mom cooked most of the meals the first week, my sister kept Lucas entertained and held Colby, and just having them around helped my sanity.
Colby is sleeping great! He gets up every 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours at night, eats, burps, needs a diaper change, and drifts back to sleep. We sure hope it continues!
After Colby's umbilical cord fell off we gave him his first home bath! It was a group effort as you can see below! Lucas is especially excited to be a big helper!

We had a wonderful time with Auntie Em
and we miss her already!
She was so helpful with both boys!

Lucas is such a good helper!
The first bath was a GROUP effort!
He can suck his thumb, how cute is that?!
All wrapped up and still deciding what he thinks about bath time!
