Silas is doing well and looks like he is on the road to being a normal healthy baby boy.  He was a little jaundice but that is normal and should go away within the next few weeks.

Sean and Elizabeth have a long road ahead of them.  They are young parents and learning as they go.  There are bound to be some ups and downs but generally speaking I think they will do fine.

Sean seems to really be in tune with the baby which is great.  I think having Alex around probably helped a little bit with that.   Elizabeth was uncomfortable at first, which is understandable, and now seems to be settling into the mommy groove.

I went back and read some of my earlier posts when Toni was pregnant and just after Alex was born and it brought back lots of memories.  I am glad I took the time to write about that time of my life.  I can refer back to the old posts when I am thinking about what Sean and Elizabeth are going through and share our experiences with them.

Silas had his circumcision yesterday and I cringe just thinking about it.   I remember when we went through this with Alex and it was difficult.  Changing his diaper and keeping him clean was tough so I know what Sean and Elizabeth are going through right now.

Looking forward to the weekend for some rest and relaxation.  I have a large project coming to a close at work next week and it has me stressed out.  Just want to make it past that so I can settle down and take care of smaller projects that have been on the back burner.
