I started work yesterday, and Evy stayed with my sister. I'm so glad that my sister is watching her because I didn't worry at all. I knew that Rebekah had everything under control, and I only called once to ask her to keep an eye on Evy's milk intake so I knew how much to give her every day. Today was the last day of my maternity leave - and it was the first day of Paul's working from home schedule. I decided I was going to hang back and leave Evy up to him so I knew he'd be okay by himself on Friday and every day after that. He did pretty good, but stressed out a bit when Evy was crying because he was worried he'd get a phone call or something. I showed him how to use the Snugi Carrier for when he needed his hands but Evy was insisting to be held, and we also decided to replace his Bluetooth headset so he could use his mobile phone hands-free if Evy needed him. Yesterday I got a call from the Loving Support Breastfeeding Hotline, they were the ones I called when I was having my engorgement problems. Anyhow, so they called just to see how everything was going and also to let me know that Evy was going to be going through a growth spurt any day now and to be on the lookout for increased feeding demands. Paul had the last four days off, so my already unscheduled days became even more unscheduled. Paul's the best, and let me sleep in every morning the last four days until well past 11am. The problem is that I began to stay up until about 2am and now I'm in the worst sleeping pattern. So I told Paul, "Make sure I get out of bed before you leave on Tuesday!" and he kept his word. I'm awake even if Evy isn't. I just took this picture with my small point & shoot, ergo the tacky flash. But surprisingly it turned out well! I love having staring contests with her - she's so unbelievably perfect to me! All I've been doing is photo posting lately. But that'll change really soon. My 2nd nephew Elijah - born on March 24th (less than a month before Evelyn) - came with my sister for our "Sister Night" tonight. With both the kiddies wiped out, we put them to sleep together in Evy's crib. Don't they look so cute! Elijah is on the left :) |
