Being a new mom is wonderful. But somehow, I feel like I can't get anything done. I have to figure out a way to use the time between feedings effectively.
For those of you who may not know, my husband and I have been blessed with a new baby boy...Hampton Andrew. He was born 3 weeks early, due to my elevated blood pressure. After an 11 hour labor, he was born at only 5 pounds and 15 ounces, but was healthy. Toward the end of our time at the hospital, the doctors became concerned with his jaundice levels. He was put on a billibed (at home photo therapy) for a few days to help break down the bilirubin. We thought it looked like he was sleeping on a tanning bed. He is doing great now and growing like a champ. I am recovering well and enjoying every minute at home with my boys. I am one proud mom!!!!!
My brother Drew is living with us this summer while he has an internship with JE Dunn...a construction company. He is going to be a senior at Oklahoma State and truly amazes me with his spiritual maturity. Drew and my husband share many common interests (Xbox, golf, sports...), so I'm sure they will enjoy the company this summer...Hampton and I tend to be a little boring :).
The big boys are playing golf right now, Hampton is asleep, and I am putting off writing long overdue thank you notes. Sometimes, I wish there were another way to express my sincere gratitude.

Isn't he precious! I am so thankful for a happy healthy baby.
