Welcome Colton!

We are so glad and proud to introduce our son, Colton, to the blog world!  Neither Ross nor I knew what to expect of life or our feelings once he arrived - but it has been better than we ever could have imagined!  We love our "little buddy" (Daddy's nickname for Colt) or "little muffin" (Mommy's nickname for Colt) so much - and every day we love him more!

We are doing pretty well.  It is wonderful to be home as opposed to the hospital.  With this freedom, however, comes many questions.  No one qualified us to have a baby - there is so much to learn!  I am looking forward to our first visit to the pediatrician tomorrow, I will be asking many questions.

Somehow we are still functioning every day, despite getting very little sleep.  Colton seems to eat every hour, day and night, which means few opportunities for rest.

Time to wrap this up - a fussy baby required Mommy's arms and typing one-handed is too hard. :o)
