My first week home

Everyday Scott and I are learning new things about Kekoa and about how to make our lives as easy and convenient as possible right now. I have post-it notes written all over the house to help me remember what I need. I thought pregnancy brain was bad, but mommy brain is even worse! I can't remember anything!!!

Scott, of course, is just so amazing and supportive. He has been running errands during the day of things that we need. He makes sure that all my waters (that are strategically placed around the apartment) are filled at all times. Snack patrol is also something he is in charge of. I still can't believe how hungry nursing makes me. I have to continually snack and eat. Scott preps my next snack to make it really easy for me. I'm even too hungry to open a tupperware, put the food in a bowl, and into the microwave. Scott has it all ready for me to microwave. All the little minutes add up to precious nap time.

Yesterday was the first day I was actually able to nap during the day. I took 3 naps! Woo hoo! I've been just going, going, going, during the day...which doesn't work in too well to the long night feedings! Auntie Kim came over yesterday, went to Costco and Longs for us, helped me prep chicken soup for the slow cooker, brought over homemade pasta salad and potato salad, AND cleaned our bathroom!! Thank you so much Auntie Kim!! :)

Our friends Gary and Peter came over as well. They brought us delicious homemade chicken soup (which I quickly devoured while they were visiting), organic veggies, and cute little baby clothes and a soft, snuggly car blanket.

Auntie Cassie continues her role as my fairy godmother...making sure we have dinner every night, doing laundry for us, and watering my plants on the porch daily. She is definitely keeping Scott and I well fed. We can't wait to return this good Karma for someone else in the future. We are just sooooo lucky and fortunate to have a fairy godmother live right next door! :)

Today we have our 2nd doctor's appointment. Kekoa looks like he is getting chubbier to us. His cheeks are getting fuller and he is getting some meat on his bones. Scott and I are both keeping our fingers crossed.
