week :: three

Here we are today three weeks since I gave birth.  I can't believe three weeks have already flown by because sometimes it feels like just yesterday.  I am absolutely smitten with my little girl.  Truthfully, we all are smitten with her.  Squish can't get enough of her and always wants to be involved in her care somehow.  Whether it's changing a diaper or moving her from one spot in the house to the next.  Bug adores her but this isn't his first time having someone new in the house so he is not as interested in her every move like Squish is.

 

We had a few close calls in our house this week with Squishy facing some potential major head injuries.  Fortunately, all was/is fine.    In the above photo, I don't know if you can see the scar on Bug's right eyebrow.  That is the 2nd of two major gashes he has taken to the head.  Both times we just used super glue to close them up.  Most people are in a bit of shock that we would use super glue and not take them to the hospital for stitches.  Our reason for this is because we know there will come a time where we will have to use the services of a Doctor at the hospital and we expect this event will be a bit traumatic for all of us so we are trying to prolong this trip/experience. 

 

We are not the "helicopter" style of parents.  We want our kids to be kids.  We want them to explore and learn and fail sometimes because we know that always telling them what to do doesn't stop that natural curiosity that kids have. 

 

Onto week :: 3

 

This week we went and explored the "pink" park.  The boys had fun while "Anna" slept through most of it.

 

"Anna" and I went grocery shopping again.

 

week :: 3 of the dress....

 

New this week for Princess Pea:

In the last few days it seems she is awake more.  Her oversized flower headband that I made for her now fits.

 

She has finally gained enough weight that she can now wear cloth diapers.

 

 

What hasn't changed....

We still love and cherish our cuddle time with her.
