Bringing home Beckham

We finally got to bring Becks home! After 3 weeks exactly in the hospital and a couple crazy/lazy nurses, we finally got to bring our little boy home. It was a wonderful day, and since then we have gotten very little sleep. This kid is so noisy! I dont know how long I can take him only a few feet from my bed, it sounds like we have a lamb or a Velociraptor sleeping in the room. He grunts and squeaks all day long. When I'm sleeping, I like silence. And unfortunately, I get just as freaked out when I dont hear the squeaking. It's a crappy cycle. But I wouldnt have it any other way. This is him meeting his brother for the first time, who currently has another ear infection and has yet to actually touch his brother. Its been an interesting transition with two kids who cant be near each other, but I dont want to risk Beckham ending back in the hospital cause of a cold. Hes just a little to small. our first family photo. and even though you cant see beckham, this makes me happy.

He is up to 5lb 9oz.

He's so cute! Yea for taking him home!!! I forget how small they look in the carseat in the beginning. That sleep cycle. Completely my experience with Scarlet. I'm either frustrated by the noise or panicking that the silence means she has died in the crib. Moving her out made life sooooo much more rested. But it took me 8 weeks, I think.
