I sure do appreciate what has become my daily soak in the tub. Even more, I am looking forward to seeing my chiropractor tomorrow...giving birth to another nine pound baby took a bit of a toll on me.
Deacon is a week old today. They grow up too fast! He is such a sweet boy, and I am loving having him in my arms.
The babymoon ends tomorrow, as Clay heads back to work. Thankfully it is just for the afternoon - I need to ease into his absence slowly. I have been so blessed to have him home for the past week. Isn't there a job out there that would pay him to stay at home all the time? In my dreams.

My parents' front yard is a giant sandbox, as they are in the process of getting the stucco done on their house. So while Clay and I were both fast asleep in the house thanks to our nights being a little low on sleep these days, our two mischievous middle children were busy taking their clothes off and getting dirty in the sand. A week ago I would have been bothered by the mess...today I was just glad to have gotten a few extra hours of sleep! We are reaching a new level of crazy with four kids in our family :)
A laundry basket full of clean, folded clothes. My sweet husband loves me, that much is obvious :) He's been doing an amazing job taking care of the house this week while I rest and recover from giving birth.
Sleep. It's a precious commodity around here these days. For the record, Deacon is getting plenty of it.
Deacon and Daddy, enjoying some good snuggles.
Tomorrow his big siblings come home, after a few days at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Can't wait to see them!

I love this little guy. I'm too tired to think of anything else to write at the moment.
Deacon Isaac, our precious third son, was born at home this afternoon at 4:25. My heart overflows as I gaze at all 9 lbs, 3.5 oz of him. He's absolutely perfect.
