So, Landon is at the top of his class. He can roll over on his own! Today we were able to catch it on video! Hes still such a great baby. I let him wake me up when hes hungry so we are more on his schedule than anything. Its usually every 2.5 hours sometimes longer. Last night was another good night. Actually Taylor and I had this whole weekend to ourselves and we did really well. As long as I go to bed early I can get enough sleep to stay awake throughout the day. Its still hard to get up and not have a night to sleep all the way through but its better than having a cry baby who never sleeps! It will be nice to have a night where I can sleep straight through... I havent had that since before I was pregnant! Anyway, life as a stay at home mom has been pretty good. I have been able to move a lot better. The doctor took the glue off of my incision. It was bleeding a little bit so they gave me an antibiotic just to make sure I dont get an infection. The scar looks really good though. I dont think it will be bad at all. Its been nice to feel better. I was going a little crazy feeling so crippled. I do not like surgery at all!
We had our first real outing yesterday with my mom. We all went to La Cantera mall and had a late lunch and did some shopping. It was soooooo nice to buy normal clothes! We had a great day and Landon did really well. I changed him in a bathroom for the first time, with help from my mom of coarse. Thankfully he didnt pee on me! Its definitely more difficult to travel with him. I have to look for all of the ramps, carry around an extra bag and make sure there are areas to feed and change him. Overall we had a great trip and using the stroller was a lot of fun. I really felt like a mom. Its starting to sink in more that this is my life. Its going to be different. I think since I have just been home it hasnt really hit me as much. But when we were out its a completely different story. I am going to take him to bible study on Wednesday by myself. We will be at someones house to it will be easier.
So I guess everything has been good other than that. Taylor is getting a new job so prayers everything will work out with that! I am still doing well with recovery, hopfully I can start walking more soon! And Landon is growing and getting bigger. He smiles in his sleep, still cant wait for his social smile to come through. Hes eating sufficiently and getting heavier. Starting to outgrow newborn diapers and clothes. We all just love him so much!! My mom is here again this week and more of Taylors family will be here this weekend. It will be different when we dont have so much help! Right now our parents have been very generous with getting us groceries, cooking us dinner, taking us to eat dinner, letting us go out on dates, and doing laundry. But there will be a day that comes where I have to do it all! I think we will be okay though. It will be nice when I start feeling 100% better and get used to my new schedule. I guess the next challange will be when and if I go back to school this summer. I am hoping that works out. So prayer for that as well would be nice!
Ok, Landons hunger is calling and I need to feed him! Will write soon :)
Love,
A, T and L
