(so I stole this one from my moms blog, BUT I LOVE IT)
Ok well I was hoping that I would be able to post some pics, but now luck. We lost the cord to the camera, so now pics just yet. Hopefully tomorrow. Well we have now been home since tuesday and its all a little crazy. The first night was the worst. I guess Parker wasn't getting enough to eat from the breast and he let us know it by NOT letting us put him down. By six am and no sleep I made Jordan go out and buy a bottle. It worked like a charm. One pink bottle and three oz of formula later Parke was sleeping like a baby, for FOUR hrs straight. Just enough time for mom and dad to get caught up on a little sleep too. All I can remember thinking through it all was this is not my baby. He hardly cried at all in the hospital. So thankfully I got my baby back. I have been pumping (not getting a whole lot at first) and we have been giving him formula. That pump is SUCH a life savor. At the risk of tmi, my nipples hurt way to bad. They are healing now and I feel much better. As long as I get enough sleep. When I get tired that is when I start going crazy and my mind starts racing. That is when Jordan takes Parker from me and tells me to go to bed. He is sooooo smart cause I always wake up much better.
I could never imagin how great it is to be a mom(or how hard it is either). My favorite thing in the whole world is to look at my son wether he is sleeping, just looking around, or yes even crying. Wide awake looking around is my favorite. It is so hard to think that that is what was moving around inside of me for so long, or that he came out of me even. It seems more like the stork brought him. But that is only because I was out cold when he finally came out of me. And for some reason I feel ok with that. I was SOOOO tired from labor that I appriciated the nap. And odd thing was I felt pretty good when they woke me up from it all. I do feel bad in the fact that I was pretty out of it and it all seems a bit like a dream. But here I am with this precious bundle of joy sitting here on my lap fast asleep. Which according to what every one tells me I should be too. I think I will see if he will awake and eat his bottle when I lay him down or if I can go back to bed. Pics will come soon I PROMISE!.
PS there is a really cute ticker at the bottom of my page now. I couldn't get it to fit on the side.
