I heart boys

These pictures were too cute not to post.

Milo's room redo

I've been meaning to get my remodeling projects posted- we'll start with Milo's room since it's the one closest to completion. We put Henry in the nursery and moved Milo into the office. I was so sick of painting after all that we did in the basement, so we left the walls brown. I wasn't sure about it at first, but I think the dark brown has a cozy, "little boy" feel to it.

I made his bedding since all I could seem to find in terms of toddler bedding had cartoon characters all over it.

I painted this to go above his bed. Afro goose! I love it.

The cardboard moose head- my favorite.

We salvaged this cozy chair from Will's grandpa- I could sleep in it it's so comfy. It has big reupholstery plans in it's future if I can figure out how.

1 week

Little Henry is a big ol' one week old! I don't think he's grown much or changed much in that time. He's basically super easy and just sleeps, eats, and poops (a lot). He thinks bedtime is from 2 am until mid afternoon, so we'll need to work on that, but otherwise he rocks. Will's dad sent a baby pic of Will and it's identical to Henry's. There's not a spec of my features in him so far.

Milo seems to be adjusting well. He mostly ignores Henry, but every once in a while throws a little love or kiss his way. He's pushing his limits a little more lately, but I think that's more from his age than the new baby. He's still a sweet, cuddly little guy. He seems so big and grown up all of a sudden! It makes me a little sad. But basically Milo plus a new baby is 100x easier than Milo as a baby, so we're doing pretty good here at the Radford house. 2 kids is cake, and I couldn't be any happier about our little family of four. I love it so much!

I love this...

Well that was a fun day...

Blonde fuzzy hair! What the...

The delivery went so smooth and easy! I was induced at 37 weeks for pre-eclampsia, and it all went so quick. Loved the hospital, loved the epidural that worked perfectly, love this little guy. He's such a tiny little bug. So sweet, eats like a champ, snuggles up like a little pillbug, and has the highest, shrillest, screamiest, squeakiest cry I've ever heard, though I haven't heard it much yet.
