After the first few days with very little sleep, Owen started sleeping up to four hours between feedings. (Once my milk came in and he had a full belly. TMI? Sorry.) Glorious four hour stretches of sleep for both of us! :)
A full belly means full diapers too. He got an impromptu bath after one was a bit too full.
As you can tell, he didn't really appreciate it.
He did like Grandma's snuggles to calm him down though.
And was finally dressed and ready to go...
To the doctor, where they just make you undress babies anyway.
We rushed back home after his appointment and grandma grabbed him quickly.
So she could get one last look before "G'ma" Pam took her to catch the train home.
We loved having my Mom here for a few days!
"Thank You" doesn't even seem to cover it... Mom knows, "Who is in charge here"! :) She took care of everything from groceries, meals, laundry, cleaning, caring for boys... and so much more! So, although it doesn't seem enough, Thanks, Mom!
We waved our final goodbyes as they drove away...
And then consoled ourselves with baby snuggles.
Boo hoo!
ReplyDeleteThis post made me cry! My mom came for a week or two with each boy and helped out so much! I totally understand how thank you is not enough. Those weeks are so precious to me!
