First day!

Today is my first day with just me and Ellie and I was really nervous about it. She woke up around 3am and wanted to be held the rest of the night so she and I slept in the recliner that Casey's parents gave us (THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT- IT IS THE BEST THING EVER!!) until Casey left for work around 7:45.

This is how I found our sweet girl in the playard after I finished eating breakfast.

Most of the morning we've just been sitting in the "wonder chair" (recliner) and watching Good Morning America and nursing. So far so good!

The good: It's going pretty great! She's even cluster feeding today and I've still been able to Skype with Jennifer, do some of Casey's laundry, AND eat!

The bad: How the heck do you go to the bathroom with a fussy baby? Do you put them down and let them cry while you are in there? (I hate letting her cry...) Do you .. hold them while in there? I just really, really don't like to let her cry because she gets SO upset.

Oh well - Adventures in motherhood!
