First day of just you and Mom!

Hi Maya,
Today was the first day since you were born that it was just the two of us during the day. Grandma Lynne went to the cabin on Saturday with Grandpa! We did our normal routine of going for a morning walk. I even did some push ups when I got home. My arms are strong from carrying you around.  We did some errands in the afternoon. I find that I have to keep my days a little structured and busy otherwise I go a little stir crazy! Plus you do so great on "field trips."  You love your carseat and stroller so it is easy to cart you around!

Yesterday Cara came down and while you slept in your swing we cooked up a storm! We made gazpacho, potato salad and a pasta salad.  Now we have food for the week. It was so great to have Cara here. I was having an emotional day and feeling kind of anxious! But I got through it and your dad has been so supportive and is good at helping me when my emotions get the best of me! I know it is normal to go through this but it isn't fun as I just want to enjoy ever minute with you!

You are sleeping better at night. You will go for 3-4 hour stretches and I actually sleep pretty hard when you sleep at night. I have had a hard time taking naps during the day when you nap, which surprises me because I have always been really good at napping. We will try again tomorrow!

You love your Moby wrap. You spend time in it every day and always end up falling asleep while you are in it! I like it because I can look right down at your cute little face and give you lots of kisses! Well you are crying and I bet you are hungry!
