2 Weeks




  • Two weeks already gone by.
  • Feedings are going GREAT. We have a 2 week weight check tomorrow and I'm fairly sure we'll get a good report.
  • He is eating about every three hours and while we're still up 2-3 times a night - depending when I actually move him to his bassinet and quit snuggling him - he's letting me get some good sleep between the feedings. I don't think I'm getting more than about 5 -6 hours a night, but the fact that I'm getting good sleep, ie. not really, really uncomfortable end of pregnancy sleep, is making ALL the difference and making Mama a happy camper. : )
  • We started some school back this week and managed to get a full day in on Tuesday (scattered sporadically throughout the day) and another full day today ... today we were better at our time management - and the baby ate at more convenient times - and we are mostly finished by lunch with the exception of our reading aloud. I realize all days won't go as smoothly so I'm very thankful for this!
  • I had an appointment yesterday for my gallbladder and my surgery is now scheduled. Thankful for a good appointment with the surgeon and his nurse who were hilarious during my appointment and completely set me at ease over this procedure with such a little guy at home. Also thankful for my friend Amy who talked me through some things before my appointment and gave me a list of questions to ask. She was fortunate to get to have her gallbladder taken out twice because her dr. didn't get it all the first time! Not cool!
  • That's about all I have today ... though it seemed like I had more when I sat down to post the pictures. Happy Thursday!

    I am slightly freakish about babies.

    Sigh.

    I can't wait for grandchildren.

  3. Good sleep? Congratulations and can you pass some my way? I think 3 of my 4 have a conspiracy to keep me from a full nights sleep. Not cool.

  4. Oh, he has such a cute "little man" face in that photo!

    Sorry to hear about the gall bladder but glad you are able to get it taken care of quickly.

One of my goals this year has been to diversify my reading. As I've spent the last 17 years homeschooling anywhere from 1-4 kids, I woul...
