He weighed in at 8.2lbs and was 22.5" long! No wonder I felt absolutely huge and uncomfortable! Daddy is already planning out his basketball career ;o)
Each day keeps getting better and better. We're starting to settle in to a good rhythm with things, and figuring out what "normal" is now. He really is a very easy going baby. The only time he ever really throws a fit is when he's getting a diaper change or he's hungry. We called him stubborn for the longest time, but I think Aunt Cindy was right, he's not stubborn, he's just very laid back and chill. Things don't get to him. Let's hope that continues!
My labor and delivery were quite the marathon, but I'll save those details for another post. Today is our first day home alone together and we're doing quite well! Griffin is at the babysitter and Matthew went back to work. Here's hoping poor Daddy can make it through the day. Greyson is a little bit of a night owl. He likes to cluster feed from about 9-midnight, making for some late nights for both Matthew and me, so he's pretty tired! At least I get to stay home and nap throughout the day.
We are so over the moon about this little guy. Griffin has been great. He wants to help with everything, and loves to give his brother kisses and hugs. He does need reminders to be gentle, of course, but what 3 yr old wouldn't? He gets so concerned when Greyson cries, he wants to know what's wrong and how to help "fix it." I hope he always wants to help his little brother as much as he does right now. It melts my heart to see how much he loves Greyson! Hopefully they will be the best of friends.

Oh he's so precious! So glad everyone is doing well. Aw, what a great big brother he is!
