Hutchinson is ONE MONTH OLD!

One month.  My goodness time is just flying by when you are surrounded by two fun, little boys.  We have been on many adventures to Bloomfield and had trips to Daddy's work.  We have had lots of visitors and had lots of snuggles.  Hutchinson is doing great sleeping (from about 10-11pm to 2-4am) and then nurses and back to sleep for another 3-4 hours.  He seems fussier that we remember Finnean.  Maybe it is the reflux (which we are not convinced of) or maybe he is just a little fiesty-er.  Who knows.  Thankfully we get to tackle the crying spells together (they can last a while-but once he relaxes he is sound asleep).  Finnean thinks he is "really loud" sometimes but likes it more when "he's happy" AKA not crying!  Hutchinson has started being awake more and is more alert.  He tracks your voices and seems to enjoy looking at Finnean, Mommy and Daddy.  He hasn't had too many close ups with Jerry...yet!  He is fitting nicely into 0-3 month clothes and the newborns are about to be put away.  He wears size one diapers and we have been battling a diaper rash, so we switched to sensitive wipes.  He has to be close to ten pounds. He is a pretty good nurser but sometimes gets so mad and arches his back that he won't nurse (again with the reflux??)  Overall we are doing pretty good (the sleep is helping), just trying to figure out what our new normal is.  Some days I don't do anything but take care of Finnean and shush Hutch and others we actually get some housework done. We are trying to learn how to get out the door in a timely fashion and get everyone around.   I am sure at some point we will figure out what we are doing!!  We are all totally in love with our new guy and are so excited to watch him grow...but not too fast!!!
What!? A month old? Already!?

Love!

Our two handsome boys. 

Whew. 

I absolutely love this boy.  Look at those sweet cheeks.

Love this one.  He is such a little round peanut!

Thanks Miss Stephanie for my awesome handmade owl onesie!

The pictures before did not portray this but this screaming mad Hutchinson is what we dealt with for most of the evening.  We decided that we need to do our photo shoots in the morning!  Screaming or not...he is still pretty sweet stuff!

I saw this a few days ago but had no time to comment! I can't believe he's hit one month already! Adorable pictures, as usual. What kind of camera do you have? You always catch great shots!
