First week at home

Hard to believe it's already been over a week since our new little peanut was born.  We've been enjoying lots of snuggle time with the little guy and have been busy with feedings, sleeping, playing, etc.  We took Grady to the doctor in Pella and he's gained some of the weight back that he lost in the hospital.  They also measured him as well and we discovered the hospital measured incorrectly.  He's actually 22 inches!  We thought that may be the case as he seemed longer than Decker.  Grady is sleeping and eating good and I only have to wake up a couple of times in the night.  We've had lots of visits from family and my mom has been staying with us too.  Decker is liking his new role as big brother and has been doing an awesome job!  He likes to hold Grady and sing to him when he's crying.  So thankful that we have two healthy, happy boys!
