James is doing great, he is getting a decent amount of sleep with only a few interruptions. He has the "magic touch" with Emmalyn, most of the time she quiets down or falls asleep if Daddy is the one doing it, not so much with mommy. He, Aunt Julie and Uncle Dan have been doing an awesome job working in the yard to make everything beautiful for Emmalyn, as well as feeding me meals (James even fed me lasagna while I fed Emmalyn, minutes before we had to be at the doctor), making sure I get sleep, and keeping the house in working condition, thank you family!!
Emmalyn is cluster feeding and after our first doctors appointment yesterday, we finally have a better idea of how to work with that so last night mommy actually got 3 whole hours of sleep in a row!! She is doing fabulous, she has already gained back most of her weight that she lost at the hospital, she is weighing in at 8 lbs. 5 oz and is 19 in. tall (she didn't shrink, she just lost her cone head and had a more accurate measurement done). Other than that, she is just the most precious baby in the whole wide world!!
Aunt Julie has been a godsend for our little family this week, if she weren't here I think that I would have had break down after break down! She has donated a ton of trees to the yards cause and much much more, and she has taken Emmalyn on more than a few occasions so that I can get some sleep!! Thank you so much Julie, you are the best and we are deeply appreciative!!
As for the pictures, there will be more very soon, it is just a matter of taking more time than I actually have right now. Thanks everyone for all the comments as well, they are a welcomed treat when I have a few moments to look at them, thanks!!
