Well, it's been 11 days as a mother of two. My mom came for the birth and stayed another week. It was great having her. Ainsley was thrilled to have her GrandmaCinda here. They played dress up, and mom made her another princess skirt. It was so great to have someone to give her the attention she needed while my attention was elsewhere.


Nora has been such a sweetheart. She's a mellow baby. She sleeps well and eats like a pig. She's got that great baby smell and I find myself just sniffing her head constantly. My favorite moment are the few times she's awake and not eating. She makes the funniest faces. I know she's not even two weeks old but I swear she smiles all the time. Funny little half smiles and goofy little looks around. It makes me laugh.


This week Tom's mom has come to stay. A weekend with no grandma's here to help makes me extra grateful for her presence. Tom got sick right after my mom left and I went from being babied to having to be the grown up again. Reality.. ugh. ;) So I'm trying to just enjoy being pampered again, and not feel like a lazy bum while my mother in law makes me food and cleans my house and lets me nap and play with my little girls.
How blessed am I.
