5 weeks

This blog is an ode to the day before Cooper where my house was clean, the laundry done, and the ironing all caught up...not really. I honsetly wouldn't trade Cooper for that day, compared with my days filled with holding him, feeding him, and just enough time to clean bottles to use at the next feeding and where brownies suffice just fine for lunch. I go back to work in 3 weeks, which isn't very long and I'm wondering how I am going to get anything done working, keeping up the housework, feeding times, cooking for us, and have any time left to do anything else??? I guess the Proverbs about the woman who rises early will very soon apply to me. Today I am making progress, it looks like I will get some photos out that I took on Easter to the family that I'm sure would like them, and I might get the house picked up just in time to feed Cooper again, then I will cross my fingers that I have time to go on a walk or jog since I can work out now. Really I missed working out and now that I can, I do not have time for it. Well here are some pictures. I received a comment about how I don't post pictures of Cooper awake, here is my answer to that:



This is how he looks while he isn't being held, I will say I let this continue for 10 minutes because he has to get used to not constantly being held, he is a spoiled child, but we just love him so much!

Here is his new friend Kash, giving him love...


Here Cooper is after he eats, such hard work:


And the last picture is of him during the Texas/Stanford game...asleep with his pacifier hanging out:

I'm not a mom yet so I have no idea how will can fit it all in your schedule but somehow mom's have been doing it for years! Utilize that free babysitting from friends and family!! You know I'm always willing!

What are you talking about? Brownies ALWAYS suffice for lunch. Or breakfast. Or dinner. Just make sure you don't blow then up like I did.

My hat is off to you! You are handling the change well.
Cooper is getting bit!

Getting it all done with come to you! It takes a while to get into the groove of things especially after a c-section but they get easier and eventually it won't feel like all you do is feed them! You're doing great, and remember it does get easier! Also, don't be ashamed to ask for help!
