Oh you are so silly to think nobody will remember you T! How could we ever forget you!!! Silly girl!
Welcome home. Seems like everyone is basically in the same boat with eating and struggles. Goes to show this journey is far from the "easy way out". I think it is great all of us feel we can come back here for support though. That is awesome.
Back to basics... the only way to start over and do it the right way. Good job! I hope you will stay close to us if you have the time, we sure do miss you!

And how is the degree going? I think the last time you posted, it was close to finals time. Hoping this Fall, with the baby here, to get at least one class online to start back on finishing up my BA.
Good to see you again =) I'm keeping this short, have a migraine, and need to finish up housework before the morning, as one of the "adoptive aunts" is coming to babysit, so me and the hubby can go see a movie and just have "us" time away from the new arrival.
Hope you stop by a little more often!

Exhausting
Slowly catching up on sleep. Ray did baby duty the other night and I got a full 6 hours of sleep, the most I've slept straight in 4 months.. it was sheer bliss.
She likes her sponge baths okay (has had 3 since she came home over a week ago), not to thrilled when she gets the Huggies wet wipes, though, when she spits up her formula. Ray's trying to get her to burp atm, and she's unconscious and having none of it. And man, she hated the first immersion bath at the hospital. The RN says that's normal for almost all babies though. But she finds it funny, because they just came out of a room full of water, you put them back in warm water and they throw a fit. Her umbilical stump fell of yesterday, so by this weekend, we'll try her first full bath here at home. I want to make sure her belly button is all healed up and ready to go before we do that.
She's going to have a well documented life for awhile, since Grandma and Grandpa live in FL, and the only way they get to see her, atm, is through pictures. I'm in the process of trying to get a really good picture to put on a Tshirt for her dad and grandpa for Father's Day. So, feel free to check back whenever, you'll probably find new pictures in her album, as I'm also creating her scrapbook pages there on the Walmart photo center, and sending a copy to myself and one to her Grandma.
Now, if I could just take her, and go back to work with her and her Pack N' Play. Only been off 3 1/2 weeks, and already starting to go stir crazy.
Well, just fed little Miss, now I'm going to go vacuum our room real fast, while dad keeps an eye on her. Like it's hard.. she's out cold again.
