He's HERE!!!!!

Well Nolan made his debut a little early and arrived exactly 2 weeks early on August 10!!! It has been so amazing, he is just so precious and sweet. We are adjusting quite well....Grandma is here and we will have more help the next two weeks, so we will see how it goes after everyone is gone, but it has not been bad at all! Sleeping is a little challenging because he doesn't like to sleep by himself at night...he has to be held, which goes against everything I ever thought I would do. I do not let him sleep IN the bed though. He is on my chest with my boppy under him for support so he won't move, and I sleep sitting up... hopefully he will do a little better so I don't have to worry so much.
Here is Nolan very fresh!!

This is going home outfit #2...not very interesting. Right before we were about to leave he poopied, and when he was getting changed he peed all over his daddy, and all over his outfit...
We went for a little check up yesterday. He weighed 6lbs. 4 oz, and his jaundice levels were very low. His collar bone is also doing just fine. It broke when he came out :( . He is doing excellent at breastfeeding and showed off for the nurse at his appointment. He ate soooo well, burped good, and pooped three times while we were there!

After the appointment we went to visit Aunt Dara and cousins Jackson, Hailey and Grady. Everyone wanted to hold him, especially Hailey.
She was sooooo excited when she finally got to.
He is usually pretty peaceful....
Especially when he is sleeping on his daddy's chest!

Allie's baby shower was today and it went sooo well! I had a great time planning it with the other hostesses, and everything went so smoothly! She got a lot of great stuff which I am sure you can see on her blog soon...this is what I spent my time doing the night before, 100 CAKE BALLS!!! It was hard work but Allie loves them, so we had to have them! (I was trying to do a little Bakerella close up action... :) )
