Our first week was an adjustment, mainly for Caroline. It's hard losing the spot of baby of the fam and she let us know. I was so thankful to have Andy home to help us out and keep everyone in their normal routines and day by day things got much easier.
Mack has been a pretty good baby - eating great, sleeping... like a newborn... ;), just generally hanging out and sleeping all the time! I took any opportunity I could find to snuggle with him and we have taken plenty of naps in this first month!
Somehow I always forget how noisy little newborns are and all the little squeaks and sounds they make. Just the sweetest little things ever.
Harper was initially pretty reserved with him - we think she didn't him to cry or anything but she warmed right up and is so sweet with him. Emma Kate wants to hold him allll the time and they take turns at bedtime snuggling with him while we read our books. Caroline did eventually fall in love too and loves to call him baby mackey and widdle buddy :)
He still has beautiful blue eyes and pretty blonde hair. He was up to 9lbs 13 oz at his 2 week checkup and is very close to completely graduating out of the newborn clothes. We moved him up to size 1 diapers about 2 weeks too.
We love you so much baby Mackey and are so thankful for the little guy!
