Six weeks already!

Payton is starting to sleep longer than 2.5 hrs at a time...at night that is. He has been giving mommy about 3.5-4.5 hours at the beginning of the night so mommy can get a nice few hours of peaceful sleep. After that it's about ever 2.5 hours til we're up and going around 8 or 9. Payton has his happy time about 6ish where he's starting to coo and smile this week! We'd seen him smile in his sleep, but these are real smiles and they make all of those sleepless nights so worth it! Oh what a blessing we have here! He really started giving us some smiles on June 13 but this video is from the 15th...sooooo cute! I am so in love with my baby boy!

The first couple of weeks

Sleeping in his favorite position
Coming home from the hospital



Trying the pacifier...didn't really like it



Wow! Mommyhood is a lot tougher than I thought it would be. I have been around babies a lot, but it's truely different when they are your own and you have to take care of them 24 hours a day. Payton loves to eat, sleep, and cuddle! His favorite sleeping position is like a little frog on your chest and he would love to stay curled up there forever...except for chow time lol! We are spending the days on the couch resting and watching movies. I am wondering how I will ever return to normal and get anything done around here...people say I will...we'll see :0)

Payton Adam Clement is finally here!



On May 3, 2011 Payton Adam Clement made his appearance in this world at 3:59 pm! He weighed 8 lbs and 7 oz and was 21 inches long! After a long 27 hours of labor resulting in a c-section, our little miracle arrived! Mommy and baby were healthy and doing well. We are so happy to be parents and start on this amazing journey. Let the fun begin!
