Hi Cuties,
I am pleased to introduce baby Charlie James. Charlie was born on February 15th and our lives haven't been the same since. Taking care of this baby is a 24 hour job and the hardest I've ever had by far. We've had time for nothing else (so much for my secondary plans of launching a business during my maternity leave. taking a shower seems like a more realistic pipe dream.) We are so in love with this little guy and it's a good thing he's so cute because he is a handful!
So much to overshare with you all in the coming weeks, including the requisite "birth story" and all the accompanying gore, lots of breast talk, dirty diapers and more! Get excited.
Until then, here are a few shots from week 1.
Week 1 Highlights:
The Good: baby cuddles, Charlie's surprise spiky hair (so cute), Charlie napping like a little frog on our chests, finally eating cold cuts again (whoo hoo, turkey sandwich)
The Bad: labor (ow, yes, it hurt way more than I thought it would), sleep? who needs sleep?, having to change Charlie's diaper in the middle of lactation class where he of course peed all over the floor
The Ugly: breastfeeding, it's not pretty or fun so far, but we'll save that story for another day.
More to come...
xo,
C
