The other thing we found out is that Isaac doesn't like the bassinet. We aren't really sure what to do about this since he is too young to just leave in it. We'll ask the nurse who comes tomorrow and have a few other things to try.
There were several fun things that happened today too...
Isaac had woken up and was wide-eyed, so both Ben and i were looking at him. He discreetly looked at Ben's face, then my face, then Ben's again.
Ben showed him, by example, how to sleep on his back.
We started to wrap Christmas gifts.
My family came over with a delicious dinner and we opened presents.
Dad found a picture of me as a baby...I look a lot like Isaac.
We decided that Isaac might become an escape artist after he repeatedly escaped from the swaddling sleep sack, in spite of Ben's best efforts to put him there very tightly.

Hey Amanda,
I am super excited for you and Ben. We used a laundry basket for Emma Beth which was really helpful. One, it was portable and two It was tight quarters which I babies like because it reminds them of the womb. Another thing we found helpful was co-sleeping. I loved it! Emma Beth slept with us in bed and got the closeness and attention she needed. Its wonderful to for breastfeeding mothers.
