Well Hannah officially rules the roost. We moved to a two bedroom apartment this year so we'd have a place for her stuff only to learn that our family room and bedroom would also be taken over. She eats eight times a day and Tim and I are try to scarf something down with one hand while holding her in the other. Tim's co workers have been very nice and have arranged to give us meals two days a week which we are enjoying. Other changes besides the lack of sleep (which is to be expected) include only showering at night once Tim is home, not caring about milk stains on clothes, bed sheets, furniture, etc., and realizing that many days Hannah looks adorable in her outfit while I am still in my pajamas. Hannah is also starting to show signs of her own little schedule. She has about two distinct wakeful periods during the day lasting about 2 hours. It's fun to see her alert and interested in her surroundings. Usually we sing songs as she loves music like her Gramps "DJ VON." One favorite is "He's got the whole world in his hands." This one is great because it can last forever. I assure you all that at some point your name has been inserted because if she is quiet I just keep singing and keep thinking of names to use. She loves it. I can't wait until we can play with toys, read books, color pictures, etc. She sleeps in our room at night. We try to keep her in her little bed as much as possible, but often she ends up on one of our stomachs. Tomorrow we see our second surgeon so stay posted regarding that appointment. Off topic, I know when she was first born every one's first reaction was "she looks just like Tim." After carrying her for nine months I thought I desearved at least one feature. Now that her eyes are open much more, I think they look like mine. You be the judge...
Awww I miss her and her momma so much already!!!!
