It's hard to believe that it's already been a week since I was pacing back and forth in a hospital room, Joye was lying on a bed about to give birth, and Caleb was just a few hours from life outside of the womb. It's only been a week and we're already saying "time flies by."
Caleb is doing great now as a one week old. When we left the hospital Saturday afternoon he weighed in at 6lb. 3oz (he lost 6oz the first few days - which we hear is normal?). On Monday we had a check up and he weighed 6lb. 4oz. Today before he was circumcised he weighed in at 6lb. 6 1/2oz. He gained 2 1/2 oz. over night so he should be back to his birth weight in no time. He's turning out to be a pretty good eater.
It has been fun to have lots of family around during a time like this. Joye and I are so thankful for a family who loves and cares about us so much. Thank you so much for the way you love us - it means a lot to our little family.
I know all you want to see right now is pictures of Caleb, but a couple pictures of my mug have to be a close second, right?:) Enjoy.
We love you all!
Peace,
JJC

Doug says: He actually looks pretty hairy for a mexican. You look good and I'm sure Joye is MUCH happier with your hairy-ness-less now. Hope you three had a spectacular Fourth.
Love and baby kisses,
Doug and Jhona...sometimes people call us Jug and Donna.
Your hair was so long. That is funny. Braden would have loved to see that. You know he was going through the long hair thing too. I know your was for the baby, but still the same.
