Lily was so nice to Gunnar in the hospital and even the day we got home, but on Sunday all the energy and excitement got to her and she gets the look in her eyes and tries to get a little rough. It could be worse. Her world was just turned upside down, but hopefully we can get through these next couple weeks until Aaron has Christmas vacation.
As for Gunnar, he is a good eater but maybe a little slow. He sleeps pretty well too, but he likes to stay awake a couple hours each night which I hope changes. It is so hard to change boys’ diapers. Between the circumcision and peeing on his clothes, I hope that gets better. This morning was a little challenging as we all got up at the same time and Gunnar wanted to eat, Lily needed breakfast and a diaper change bad, and I needed to use the restroom. Having twice as much to take care of makes me feel like I am running around like a chicken with his head cut off trying to figure out which thing needs the most immediate attention. Anyway, back to the kids. Oh man, I have kids!

Gunnar Walch Smith was born 11/30 weighing in at 7 lbs 9 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. He has tons of black/brown hair and is very sweet. We got home from the hospital on Sat and are trying to get back to routines despite Aaron having tests everyday and finals next week. He will be gone a lot and it has been a little rough, but help from the ward and my family has been in abundance. Aaron's mom gets here Friday.

Good job Kristen! Congratulations from the Workmans. He is adorable, according to the couple of pictures I saw.
