The first 3 weeks

It's Jess here, finally got my computer up and running and found a little time in between napping, eating and feeding to post.

This is me while the contractions were still exciting and managable...i definately know why our brains are programmed to forget the birth or the world wouldnt be over populated! BUT, when Parker did open his eyes for the very first time and saw Ryan and I...well there is no other feeling like it!

We had our first home visit today and were told that Parkers weight gain was almost unheard of...all i wanted to hear was that he was doing well because i never know whether im doing anything right or not, SO, we are doing at least that! He was 3.6kgs when born and today, 2 weeks later, he is 4.4kgs.

Parker a few minutes after birth...so beautiful!

Our poor little Jaundice bubba, he lost the yellowish tinge about a week after birth

Parker going for a ride in the car, which he loves!!!
Daddy and Parker, getting some much needed nap time!


I breast fed in public for the first time today, something i have been dreading because everyone has an opinion about it, and i had visions of my boobs (or "tuckshop", as Ryan and Parker call them) popping out and milk squirting into a strangers face etc but it worked really well so i feel a little more confident!


Ryan is getting great at multi-tasking!!!!

Parker loves a good nap not wrapped up, however he gets the "thriller arms" which tend to wake him up...so cute though

Tess is settling down a little more every day, however she chooses some inopportune moments to play out. She is getting her big walks everyday though cause Parker also loves the pram, sometimes we just keep walking because he is quite!

Bye for now, i will keep the blog going!!!
