The last four weeks



It's so hard to believe that our Phoebe is four weeks old!  I always knew that being a wife and mom was my life calling, so I am truly living my dream.  Phoebe was born December 19, we got home from the hospital on the 23rd, and Christmas was a [very happy] blur.  Actually, Christmas was crazy!  We were the walking wounded: me recovering from a c-section (not what I had envisioned, but all that mattered was a safe delivery, so I'm very thankful for the care we received and that all turned out well), Phoebe recovering from birth and her first few days on the outside, Chris got MRSA from our time at the hospital :( and Duck had an infected toenail removed on Christmas Eve.  But it goes without saying, our happiest Christmas ever!

Since then, we've been getting into somewhat of a routine.  We've had a bunch of sweet family outings to Whole Foods.  I figured out how to walk Duck with Phoebe in the Ergo carrier.  And just this week, Phoebs and I have taken our first two car trips together: Target and Baby Gap!  Confidence is shooting out my ears.

I am so, so lucky to be Phoebe's mom.
