Blake, Day 6

Has everyone had enough of Blake yet? I can't help but keep posting pictures of the little guy. He gained two ounces in the last two days so he is right on schedule with his weight gain and comes in at a burly 6lbs. 5.5oz. Treesa, my Midwife's assistant, came by today to help me with our lactation problems. Blake wasn't sucking so great at the beginning so they had me pump to bring in the milk and now Treesa said my body responded so well to the pump that I am now producing enough milk for twins. We will find a middle ground soon enough. My parents stayed with us for a few days and now Andrew's family is here until the end of the weekend. Ellen has made delicious meals and everyone hands Blake around for their fix of baby TV!

It's great that Blake gets to see all of his grandparents! I love the picture of him soaking in the sun on your lap. Now THAT'S the life =) I'm never going to get sick of the pictures, so keep posting them!

He has some big hands and feet to grow into. He looks like his cousin Nick right now. Big feet, big hands and skinny. Possible Hobbit DNA. Much love,
