The Rest of July

After that last post, Jack had his 1-month birthday. We were excited about it, but too busy to do much. We've been pretty tied up learning how to keep Jack happy and well-fed. After the first two weeks at home, our families left and we had to learn to be parents without the benefit of full-time help. Thanks to our strong start and the generosity of friends and family who made sure we had all the baby gear we needed, we've settled into it nicely. Sure, we have some crazy nights and fussy days, but that comes with the territory.

Breastfeeding has improved dramatically for mother-and-child, and the results are clear-- Jack tipped a scale at 9 pounds on July 27, when Jen was at the Breastfeeding Center for Greater Washington, a facility that provides weekly support groups and one-on-one sessions for new moms.

The pictures in the album below are sort of random. After those first two weeks when our families were around, we didn't take too many pictures (unless visitors were dropping by.)
