Elliot's first 5 days were spent sleeping and feeding mostly. He sleeps from 11 pm to 7 am except for one or two feedings, so we're pretty lucky right now.

Everyone says he'll start sleeping less in a few months so we should enjoy our rest while we can.

We've loved reading all your emails and "congrats", so thank you everyone!

Nicole is doing wonderfully and I've got another 12 days off from work to spend with our little family.

We'll have another photo update in a few days.

-Rob and Nicole

Bob Adams, Rob's dad meets Elliot for the first time.

Rob looks at his little boy, while his little boy looks at something more interesting than Rob.

Chris pulls "Burp-Duty" for a few minutes. This is preferable to the less-desired "Burp/Doodie" which Rob always gets.

Chris spreads the news to more family up in Canada.

One of Elliot's more expressive sleeping positions.

Here's his feet after we printed them for the baby book.

Nicole's tummy progress completed!

Watch the video of his first 5 days (Quicktime 7 mb.)

Daydreaming about the one thing all boys daydream about...b-o-o-b-s...

"Life is so hard. I can't decide whether to suck, sleep, or crap myself. Let's see... hmmmm..."

Nicole catches up on some Zs with her lil' guy holding on for safety.

He sleeps a lot.

We'll try to get some more action shots in the next few days.
