One Week Old

Today is Isaac's one week birthday. Last night he slept from midnight until 7am. While we have no ideas that we should get used to this type of treatment, we'll take it for now.

He's eating better, too. Breastfeeding was something he apparently wasn't born knowing how to do, but with Heidi's persistence and patience, he's catching on.

Today, Matt and his dad continued working on the courtyards (the goal is to turn the west courtyard into some type of outdoor entertaining area, while the east courtyard is being further refined as a private prayer and meditation garden).

This evening, we got a nice picture of Isaac using Jake as a pillow. Jake was amazingly tolerant of this whole situation and even purred quite a bit, providing some soothing vibrations for Isaac. Who needs batteries?

Looks like Isaac found a PURR-fect place to catch a CAT nap!

Sorry:) I couldn't resist!

That is too cute! I love it!!!
Although to be honest, Jake looks like he might be thinking about the situation he's in, as if he's just not quite sure about this... :)

That's so cute...How do animals always know how to behave around babies? And it looks like Matt is behaving too. How about that!
