Diva Duty


Here I am feeding the new man in my life. Mr. Wonderful and I have been taking some feeding shifts so Mom and Dad can get some much needed sleep. Oscar is such a love and perfect in every way. (Not that I'm at all biased!)

He sleeps a lot and is getting better at nursing. He had his first pediatrician appointment yesterday and his doctor was very pleased .

Auntie Becky has been giving us some good advice via phone calls from Canada. Emma has been looking at Oscar's photo and saying "baby" when she sees him.

Proud Poppa, has been helping me do the 3 a.m. feeding. He is a terrific burper! You can tell he is very proud of his new grandson. Here's a picture of my boy awake. I love watching him sleep. He smiles sometimes and loves to sleep with his right arm extended over this head.

I love this picture of new daddy Tim with Oscar. Tim is such a wonderful daddy and very protective of Suzy and Oscar. This is a shout out to Terry and Marie (Tim's parents) for raising such a caring and sensitive man. Tim is a great cook, and anticipates so many of Suzy's needs before she even has to ask. We adore him and feel so blessed to have him in our family.

Oscar will be a week old tomorrow at 11:55 P.M. We are planning on having a one week birthday party for him. All of us have been putting in some late night hours so I'm sure we will all be in attendance.

Keep this new family in your prayers as they adjust to each other. It is so sweet to watch your baby interact with her baby. Loving every minute of Diva duty.

Ohhhhhhhh I just LOVE this post! That picture of Tim and Oscar is just beautiful - the look of love on Tim's face... Oh my goodness! I don't know who captured it - but kudos to them! He will cherish that photo forever!

Carry on Diva & Poppa! Seems like you're all doing a fine job! I think Oscar has managed to get everyone QUITE wrapped in just his first week of life! Wonder what he'll do with week 2!

KISS that baby for me!!!

I love that line, "watching your baby love on her baby"...yes that is the most incredible part to us..grandmothers. When did our little ones get big enough to have their own babies? Hm! I don't remember how that happened..Time is such a stealer but such a wonderful thing to experience!! Thanks so much for this sweet post. Have a happy time loving on Oscar...

Oh Daisy, he is SOOOOO adorable. What a precious little face! I know you are loving this time with him and his momma and daddy. Enjoy this time (DUH!!!) and give him some extra love from one of his 'cyber aunties'!
P.S. Thanks for your love and prayers for my mom. She is truly at peace and I am grateful.
