9 days old...

It's hard to believe it's already been 9 days since we brought William into the world. It has been unbelievable so far and I can only imagine how much we have to look forward to!
I'm scared to even report, because it might be too early to declare this, but we have a GREAT baby. He sleeps and eats and MAYBE he'll cry when he gets his diaper changed, but usually he is as happy as can be.
He has been sleeping in his crib since the first night we got home. He looks like such a pea in that big crib, but we decided this would be the best for all of us. I don't know that a 9 day old can like something or not, but so far he likes his crib. He goes down, wakes up every 3-4 hours with a little cry, we feed him and he's back to sleep in the crib. What a blessing!!!!
His umbilical cord scab fell off on Monday and he finally got his first real bath yesterday. At first he wasn't so sure, but by the end, he had warmed up to it. Of course he decided to tinkle and burp a "loaded" burp while he was getting his bath, but I figured that was all too convenient...we just re-washed his little body! Here are a few pictures from this event.
