One Week Ago

It is hard to imagine that it was only a week ago that I was praying for sweet relief and wondering what in the heck I had gotten myself into. But a week it has been, and to be honest a great week at that with only a couple of exceptions.
Case is doing marvelous. He took right to nursing (thank heavens) and sleeps really well. He is pretty mild mannered and can sleep right through all the chaos...which brings me to the only difficult part of the week...a sick and tired Jack.
Case looks a lot like Jack and so I decided to try to duplicate Jack's first week picture with Case and then show them both to you. BUT after I took the pictures I realized that maybe they don't look as much alike as I thought. Oh well, I will still post them both.

Of course they favor each other---I think the chin is the difference! So cute! Glad the nursing is going well---give a smooch to all three cute boys for us.

Ha! They are exactly alike. How fun to have a similar picture of them. Glad to hear things are going so well.
I really do think you are amazing to have such a long, natural birth!

I wouldn't be able to tell them apart! It's amazing how you, as their mother, can see every little difference when other people are totally oblivious. Congratulations on a beautiful, healthy baby.
