Payton at 3 weeks
I thought I would do a little update since we went in for Payton's check up , pku, and circumcision today. I felt bad for him but it needs to be done. He weighs 6 pounds 13 ounces now and is 20 1/2 inches long. He is growing quite well so it shouldn't be too long until he passes his sister in height and weight. He is still sleeping quite well, he will go 5 to 6 hours between feedings sometimes and sometimes only 3 hours between but he lets me nap during the day and is starting to stay awake for like an hour to 2 hours, which helps him sleep during the night. The kids are still adjusting but overall don't really know he is around unless they go into our room and see him. They are pretty nice with him. Madyson I have to look out for because she wants to stick his paci in his mouth when he doesn't want it and rock his car seat out of control, and push his belly. She wants to help it is just too much right now. But other than being on my own with three kids and trying to adjust not much else has happened. Hopefully I will go and get the kids pictures taken soon. I never got 1 and 2 year pictures for the other kids and they are 5 months overdue. Maybe that will be my next post!! Lets Hope

Bringing home baby
We got to bring Payton home on July 3rd, it was very exciting for us. He spent about a week in the NICU because of breathing problems, then we found out he was cooms positive (my blood attacked his) which gave him a bad case of jaundice and then he needed to learn how to eat. We are so glad he is home and the kids love to look at him and want to hold him all the time. He is a really good baby he sleeps a ton and only stirs when he is hungry or poopy, so I can't really complain.
