Well, It's Been a Month

Liam was born one month ago today and we seem to be surviving, adapting, and mostly enjoying the chaos. We have yet to get normal sleep, but on most nights we will get at least one four-hour stretch. And everything seems to be working; he pees, poops, screams, and sleeps with the best of 'em.

Galen seems to adore his little brother. He is usually very gentle with his touch, kiss, and hug. Though he often wants to touch him when Liam's napping. And he can be very gentle when hold Liam, though he's years from picking him up and holding on his own.


When we went for Liam's most recent doctor's appointment there were two other Liam's in the waiting room, and one of them was a Liam Thomas. The parents and nurses were all amazed that three of five kids in the waiting room had the same name. Were did this popularity come from? I'm trying to recollect our naming process. Did we fall into a Liam name wave?
