Everyone did warn me, "Get your rest now. You will need it for when the baby is born." I DID get rest before he was born, it wasn't enough! Ahhh! There is nothing more tiring than getting up to feed a newborn every 2 hours. I would have to say that the first 3 weeks of having a baby at home were the most challenging 3 weeks of my life. There were many tears, from baby AND mommy. ha! I can laugh about it now, but when you little one is crying in the middle of the night, you're tired, baby's tired, daddy's tired, and you cannot figure out why he won't go to sleep, you start to go insane in the membrane. The first 3 weeks were a blur of emotions. No one told me it was going to be that hard. But every day was better than the day before. You learn something new about the baby and about yourself as each day passes. You become teammates with your spouse. There is nothing more rewarding and wonderful than having Benjamin in our lives. He is a true blessing.
Choppy, the good boy. He has been the greatest doggy ever. He definitely gets less attention than he used to get, but he still runs around like the happy lil guy he's always been. I just wish there were two of me to give him the attention he deserves too.
