Congratulations to the happy family on the birth of your son! Looks like your daughter is already to be a big helper.

Holy hair! He's cute! I bet your wife will be happy to get back on her helping meds.

Thanks Chet. Haley is doing OK with Colby's arrival. She is still testing the waters so to speak, but at least she isn't completely against him at this point.

Thanks Tiff. She is glad to be back on her meds, and so am I. I get my "real" wife back.

I know how that is. My daughters got 7 years on my son. She is only now after 9 months warming up to the kid.

Thanks. And congrats to you! Each year I expect us to share b-day pics. Sleep? What is that? Nah, we do alright. My wife and I rotate night feedings. For a few days he was an early riser and wouldn't go back to sleep, but he seems to have lost that habit.

We have been pretty lucky as well. She is going 3-4 hours between feedings during the day and 4-5 hours at night.

I hope I'm not hijacking your thread, but here is a link to the thread about Kylie.

Nope, not hijacking at all. We are not quite as "lucky" this time around. Colby goes 3-4 hours during the day, but only 3 at night. Luckily he does sleep fairly well at night between feedings though. I think we have had too many visitors to get our schedule going and he is fighting a cold to boot. The next few weeks will be interesting to say the least.
