It is definitely not easy having a newborn. He was sleeping really good at first, but the last two days he's been waking up every one to two hours. It's not so bad on the weekends because Mike and I take turns, but during the week it's rough because I'm up all night with him. They say to sleep when he sleeps but it's hard if he never sleeps! Well, he's sleeping right now, but I have to eat sometime & clean my house & brush my teeth & do laundry & feed my animals. Being a new parent means your time is no longer your own. Things are better, though, as far as recovering from the surgery. There's still a lot I can't do, but getting in and out of bed is no longer impossible. I think I had the post-partum blues, but those are overwith now as the pain slowly subsides. Mike's family has been great. His sister has been helping out a lot. My mom has even came over a couple of times to help out. He's getting cuter & cuter everyday too. He loves to groan & complain, especially when he's asleep. He smiles in his sleep too. I can't wait until he can start playing & interacting. There's just so much to look forward to. Oh & Mike is done with school this week. He'll be certified to become an estimator. His job already had him start last week on planning for the jobsite he's on. It's great...hopefully he'll start getting paid salary soon! I'm so proud of him!
