Ben's mom also came to visit this past week. I was so grateful to have her here! She was such a huge help. Who knew taking care of a newborn was SO time consuming...not to mention a little isolating, when all you do is sit at home alone feeding your baby all day! It was so great to have the company, and the help! We haven't eaten that well in months!
I'm on my own this week, since Ben is back at work, and my family doesn't get here till the weekend. I'm honestly wondering how people do it alone. Having a newborn is a BIG JOB! It's a good thing Alexis is so dang cute...because between the marathon feedings, constant diaper changes and lack of sleep at night, I might be feeling a little down at this point. But the fact that I get to cuddle with the most adorable little girl all day every day kind of makes all the tough stuff worth it!
(And yes, in case you were wondering, we were having a picnic in 80 degree weather in the middle of December!)

Oh man, she just gets cuter and cuter! But they are definitely a lot of work! I'm so glad you had the Grandma's there to help - I wish I could hop on a plane and come help too! We are so anxious to see you all in just a couple of weeks. Give that cute baby kisses from all of us! Love you all!
She is so cute I can't stand it! Also, for marathon feedings and no sleep you are looking pretty fantastic yourself.
Congratulations Heather- she is beautiful, and you look amazing!!
Such cute pictures! You look great and she looks adorable! Keep it up! It gets lots easier and then they start giving back to you with smiles and giggles! Hope to see you guys soon!
I'm just posting this to see if it works because I am unable to post on my English class' blog. Nice blog though.
IT WORKED! This means it wasn't my fault then.
