First week at home...

While Aaron & I both hoped that everything about being a parent and taking care of a newborn would just come to us the second we got Wyatt home with us, this just was not the case! It took us a few (sleepless) days to learn the ways of our new boss. Wyatt made it clear that he was running the household, and that if baby wasn't happy, ain't nobody happy! 
Our days were filled with a sleeping baby and our nights, well.. not so much sleep! Took a couple weeks for the little guy to figure out the difference between day and night routines.


 Aaron & I were amazed by how we could function on such a little amount of sleep. We may have dark circles under our eyes on a regular basis, but we couldn't help but smile looking at our little angel.
Wyatt had a few more visitors in the initial days home from the hospital..
 Firefighters seem like they're not 100% comfortable holding a newborn..

Our first trip out of the house was to Wyatt's doctor appointment a few days after coming home. He was so good that he got a lollipop on the way out of the office! 
 In between eating and sleeping cycles.. 
 he sure did dirty ALOT of diapers!
 and after being pee'd on several times, we finally got smarter than the squirter!
Bath times were some of the most precious moments!
and eventually, we learned the priceless rule: sleep when baby sleeps!!
