Good Day

Emerson went to the doctor today. He was 9 lbs. 3 oz. One ounce below his birth weight which is really good for being less than 91 hours old. He checked out fine. He had some blood drawn to check for jaundice but he came back alright.
He likes to keep his legs tucked close to him. I am guessing most babies do that. It makes for a funny and cute pose.
Right now, we are trying to focus on getting the hang of things with having a newborn. Its a challenge, but we are doing well. Sleep has been better than with Donovan and Hayden, no offense to them. I remember the feelings of despair that we had late at night that are not present right now. Instead, waking up and taking care of business is like a minor hassle. I know that will change a bit as he gets fussier.
