A couple of pictures of the sleeping prince!  Carter is doing just great!  His little cheeks are starting to look chubby, and he is eating 2+ ounces per feeding which is a great improvement - when he was a week old, he was only eating about 1/2 ounce at a time.  He is staying awake for longer periods as well.  We're not sure what he sees and what he doesn't, but sometimes it seems like he looks right at you.  And every time he hears daddy's voice, he turns to see where it's coming from!  Mama is totally exhausted, and could use some extra prayers!  We all know no one takes care of your baby like mama does, but sometimes you just have to let someone else take over and get some rest!  Cole is just the best dad - doing whatever needs to be done anytime he's asked.  He goes back to work tomorrow, so it may be kind of a rough day for Courtney.  We will try to take turns running over there to see what she needs.
Carter's monitor has went off a few times, but it's so frustrating because you don't know if it's actually him having an issue, or the monitor not getting good readings.  He has his first doctor's appointment Thursday, so we will be anxious to find out what doctor has to say, and to see if he's gained weight since coming home. 
Updates later!!
