Costume Parade & Drew is 1 week old!

I feel like I need to apologize for the massive amounts of pictures and numerous posts that I have made lately. I just don't want to forget a minute of these precious days with my sweet boys. I also want to make sure that all of our family and friends feel like they are a part of our boys' lives. So.... here goes another LONG post. (Sorry!) :)

Today was Costume Parade day at Clayton's preschool. It was mass chaos and super fun all rolled into one! God bless those sweet preschool teachers - I don't know how they have the energy to keep up with all those kiddos!


We think that the eye holes-on-the-forehead is a good look for Captain America.



Clayton came home with this super cute art project. If you look closely, you can see that they made the pumpkin out of footprints. Seriously - attempting footprints with 12 3-year-olds?!?! These teachers are saints!

Now I'll turn the spotlight over to my sweet Baby Drew... Drew is 1 week old today!!! I can hardly believe that his first week of life is over. I could just cry thinking about it. My saving grace is knowing that it just gets even better with time.
Drew continues to be a wonderful baby. He LOVES his swing and is so alert after feedings. He is a sound sleeper and manages to snooze right through his big brother's loud talking and playing. We took him back today for a repeat bilirubin level and it was normal - praise the Lord! We get to stop supplementing him with formula and back off on the "sunbathing." Yipee! We had a little fall photo shoot in the front yard to celebrate Drew's 1 week birthday...
Isn't he precious in his pumpkin hat & onesie?!?!



An attempt at a picture with both boys - even more difficult than I had imagined it would be.
Our sweet friend, Leah, brought Clayton a Big Brother goody bag tonight. He couldn't wait to bust out the silly string. It was a BIG hit!

Photographing 2 kids at once does get easier soon : ) I'm so glad Drew's bili level is down. That must have been stressful!

Sarah, Congrats on your two precious boys!! Don't apologize for all the posts - I LOVE THEM!! Your little Drew is just adorable and what a joy to see Clayton loving him so much! You're absolutely right...it's sad to see him grow but it is more and more fun as time goes by! :)

Thank you for letting us share somewhat in the lives of our precious grandchildren. The pictures and your commentary are wonderful.
I knew Drew would be back to normal, but it is comforting to see in black and white the confirmation.
