Here are highlights, observations from past week:
1) Daniel is growing rapidly - he's awake for most of the day now, checking us out. It's a magical time - the only way I can describe it. My heart swells and I forget how tired I am.
2) It's been almost four weeks since birth. I'm much more mobile now. I took the two kids out in downtown Los Altos today - pizza and then ice cream for me and Sophie. Boob juice for lil' D.
3) Sophie is adjusting. I really feel for her as a fellow older sister. She's been moody but overall she's been a real sport.
4) Cal lost today! Damn.
5) Life with a newborn baby always seems to go really slowly. It's one long sleepy day or one long sleepless night. I'll be glad when lil D's stomach gets nice and big and he can show his big sister how much he can sleep. I pray he will be as good a sleeper as Sophinator. She slept through the night at 2 months - for 12 HOURS!!!!! She was awesome.
6) Food has definitely replaced sleep; carbs anyone? I do weigh less now than I did pre-pregnancy. Hoping to keep that up. Diabetes diet anyone?
