surviving the first few weeks!

Our new life with a baby is amazing. We hoped and prayed for this  to come for a long time :) but that doesnt mean that any of this is easy!! We did anything we could to get through the first month in one piece!! haha... even Koda Bear suffered a little. Its an adjustment bringing home new life... but the best adjustment we have ever had to make in our lives! Words cant describe how much we love our chunky monkey!

To give you a little idea- here is Dirk walking in circles around our little house- dog and baby in hand ;)

First laughs!

This video is from a while back, five weeks ago to be exact. I just wanted to document the first time I captured Jaxson laughing... smiling... and looking at me! So sweet... he was four weeks old!
