So it's been a week since we've been home with our new little man and I don't want to jinx anything, but he is pretty much perfect.
He sleeps all day. Seriously. He wakes up every 3-4 hours to feed, and goes back to bed. He has awake time for 1-2 hours in the evenings, cluster feeds and then gives me about 7 or 8 hours of sleep with a feed in between.
Madison is still pretty excited about Charlie being here. She likes to pass me diapers, throw out the dirty ones, get me my nursing pillow, or help bath him. She loves to hold "my baby brother", and loves to tell me when he's making noises through the baby monitor. She's a wonderful big sister so far.
And it only took a week before she started "breastfeeding" her dollies!!!
My parents left today to return to Canada, so now I am officially by myself with two kids during the day. I know Maddy will miss her Opa, since he loved to take her outside and play with her. I hope I'm not too boring for her.
We are extremely thankful for our two beautiful children and my wonderful parents who came all the way to Finland to help out. Less than two months before we will be back in Canada. I can't wait to show off my little man!!!
It's a beautiful day.
Kim
