Abigail is here! Abigail Diane was born on 10-11-08 at 7:31 pm, weighing in at 8 pounds 13 ounces and measuring 22 inches long. She has been a wonderful baby and is sleeping very well for a one week old. Dallas and I are getting 4-5 hours of straight sleep every night and sometimes find ourselves waking her up to feed rather than the other way around-- I guess she has US trained huh?

My folks were here for the first week of Abigails life and helped out tremendously by watching the baby, waking for feedings and diaper changes and cleaning the house. They actually just left this morning and so far so good... We are learning how to play house quite nicely!

Dallas is working from home next week which will help out with the daily chores and taking care of the little one. We are hoping to get the baby on some sort of schedule soon so that we all can benefit from some structure. A-MEN!
