Big sister can not get enough of holding the baby. She would hold her all day if she could.
She does a lot of this yawning. And sleeping.
All in all, things are going really well. The only real snafu was when I realized my child was constantly hungry because I wasn't "producing" to the required amount. . .*yikes*
So, now she gets a little milk from me, and a little from a can, and she is happy as she can be!
The unfortunate side effect of babies dropping a full pound in the first week is that she is now making up for lost time and eating constantly. But hey--what new mom actually gets to sleep, right? Thank heavens for my husband who has been right there up with me all night.
He is the best :)
Don't tell him I said that, it'll be our secret. . .
Btw, I am going to wait a bit longer until things settle down. . .then my blog posts should be fairly regular again. . . If you are not currently a subscriber (and you actually made it to the end of this post--hey thanks :) you may want to consider plugging in your email (look to the left sidebar).
That way you will be notified when projects are posted--which the next post will be.
Promise!

Congratulations Robin! She is beautiful. I don't care what others say but all newborns are beautiful. Good luck with everything, especially the nursing right now. Every little bit you can give her is great! Just keep plugging along.

Congratulations Robin - she is beautiful!
I'm sure you get advice from EVERYONE already, but I'll throw in my 2 cents about milk production - I found with my son that I was not eating enough (as in nutritionally AND amount) and he was constantly hungry...when I made sure I was eating lots of good food, he stayed full! Maybe that will help you, I don't know.
I'll be anxiously awaiting your return to blogging land, but don't rush - they are only little once, right? :D
Congratulations, Robin! I found your blog around the time your blogging break began. I figured out quickly what was keeping you away. ;) While you've been gone, I started a blog of my own and put you on my blog roll. I look forward to your return and will check in more often, but in the meantime, take care of you and your little ones! God bless your growing family!
HUGS!
