3 weeks!

we made it to three weeks!!! actually, 3.5 weeks now. Harlow is amazing. we are still over the moon in love. she is chunking up fast. i went to a breast feeding support group on Monday to check in and have her weighed. she weighed in at 9lbs and 2oz! amazing since she was born at 7lbs and 5 ounces just three weeks ago. what a chunker!!! i, of course, feel like a milk machine. she eats no less than every two hours. it's amazing and pretty much all that i do all day long. exhausting.

i have been trying to get out and about every day. to lunch, to meet friends, to go to new parenting groups, ect. sadly, the midwives seem to think that i am pushing it too hard and need to rest more. so i have been back on the couch for the last two days. i'm not happy about it. Harlow is not happy about it and has been a fussy mess for two days straight. good times.

but she is amazing as usual. i just went through IRX's blog from when she was a newborn. i can't believe over a year has passed already. the first year is amazing - from blob to walking/talking. i'm trying to catch every second of it. i already miss her being one day old...one week old...two weeks old. but i also look forward to her growing into a little person.

we're liking the Moby wrap more. it was difficult at first but now we're enjoying it more. we even went for a walk yesterday in it!


here is a picture of her looking just like her Papa!


on Sunday Harlow took a nap all by herself at Jess & Shannon's. it was amazing (even if i did check on her every two minutes).
