Just a quick post to let you know I'm back at work (and online ) I don't have a whole lot of time but I know Sandi posted about Nate's birth. I'll post a couple of pics at the end. I'm waiting until my 6 week post partum check up (on Oct. 6) to officially get back on the wagon. I did attempt a couple of small walks a week ago but I think I overdid it. As soon as I can get Nate to eat more quickly in the mornings I do plan on trying to walk for 10-15 minutes.

Breastfeeding is going okay. I've been feeding him and pumping at the same time and then feeding him what I pumped afterward. He still doesn't want to stay awake for very long while nursing no matter what tactics I've tried.

Congratulations and what beautiful children and such a lovely new baby.Take it easy and enjoy.

Another beautiful child..you gotta be proud!

Mary

Aww, precious! Hopefully he'll wake up soon & get better at nursing. Congratulations!

He's beautiful Dawnyal.

Congratulations Dawnyal!

Mary - I saw on another forum that you just found out that you're having twin boys. How exciting! What does Eli think of having brothers? BTW I like the possible names you have picked out. Hayden was in the running for DS but then a friend took it first so we decided on Noah.

Congratulations Dawnyal! He is a beautiful baby!

dawn78- Noah is very pretty...it's my youngest nephew's name. He is a total kissup-teacher's pet type kid...in a cute way. He knows how to work adults

Eli doesn't get the baby thing I don't think. We are taking him to Build a Bear to let him make bears for the babies and put boy clothes on them and stuff. Hopefully that will help him realize. I feel a little bad b/c he wanted girls so badly. That is what he SAID, but I doubt he really has a concept of what that will mean. I just hope they love him as much as they love each other and don't have some exclusive twin thing going on where they shun him. That would hurt my heart.

Mary

He is beautiful!!! Congratulations!!!

Saber was a very sleepy nurser the first 3-4 weeks, but the last 3 weeks he has really become more alert and does much better. It will happen!!!

Take care of yourself!!!!!
