so we had a very sleepy day here at 1120 van buren. the little missy wanted to be sure that we indeed understood that she is a brand new baby and no easy task and subsequently had her biggest crying fit last night. we did lots of shushing and swaddling and swinging and singing and sucking and she ended up doing just fine. i think what happens though, is that then her mama doesn't really sleep because she's so ready for her to wake up again. so today mama ended up taking three fabulously long naps while dad and gran held elie. i didn't get dressed til this evening when we went to bobby and joellen's for dinner. it was really a fabulous day and good for me to remember not to do too much. it feels so good to be back in my body that it's hard to remember that they say not to do ANYTHING for two weeks. i think the laps around greenough park and trips out to lunch took their toll on us last night. alas, we've learned from our mistakes and are well rested today. so rested that i think it's time for us to turn in and begin our night's journey of sleep. night night.
