Things to remember...

I hope I don't ever forget the little things about the first five weeks. Example, last night while I was nursing Braeden he lifted up his little foot and was kicking it around and then let it rest on my boob. I know totally random, but it was really cute. I love that he likes to sleep on his side just like me. It cracks me up when he flails his arms around as if he is falling. Seems to happen the most right when he is falling asleep.

He is a hungry little monster today. Can't believe it is almost noon. The days fly by so fast.

Two Dogs and a Baby

Braeden, Gracie, Oscar and I just went for a great walk! It was our first time out of the complex and both dogs behaved great! I think my horse back riding skills came into play from using double reins. Had to have both leases in one hand and keep one hand on Braeden (he was in the moby wrap). We got lucky because it started to sprinkle just as we returned home. Now we have some errands to run and hopefully some cleaning of the house.

Time Flies and suddenly it has been 4 weeks

The past four weeks have flown by. We took a trip to Spokane for Easter and Braeden got to meet his cousins, aunts and uncles and spend time with Nina and Papa. Nina came back with us and stayed all last week which was so great! Nothing like being pampered for a week.
This week we are settling into our new temporary routine of Dave being back at work full time and me enjoying the stay at home life. I am already dreading my return to work.

We have ventured out on a walk with the dogs once thanks to the moby wrap. Today the wrap will help us take out the trash, recycling and another walk if the rain will stay away!
Tonight is my first night out solo. Going to dinner for Natalie's b-day.
