What a Month!

Avery stuck! She put her whole body through a pant leg of a pair of my yoga pants. It was pretty humorous, I thought about leaving her like this all day. It would cut down on little tornado's mess during the day!
I would like to think she was smiling for this photo!
Wow! Yesterday marked a month since our Delaney blessed our lives and what a month its been. She fits right into our little family and wouldn't trade her. I might let you borrow her for a few hours to give me a good nap and close the buffet line for more than two hours!
Delaney is having more awake periods and her little cheeks are getting more chubby, which I love!! She still will not sleep in her bed and only on occasion in her swing, which means she sleeps on my chest or next to me. Something I said I would NEVER do, but we keep working on it. I don't get good sleep when I am being paranoid about her sleeping on me and etc..
This past weekend, I was lucky enough to get mastitis again. Only I can get mastitis twice in less than a month! It seriously had me doubting my abilities as a lactating woman and questioning how bad I wanted to quit it all. But after some much needed rest, thanks to my sweet husband, I am sticking with it.
Avery is adjusting well. She "sings" to her baby (Delaney) and when Delaney starts to cry, its always "OH! Baby!" It's really cute to see how much Avery loves her.

That picture with Avery stuck in your pant leg is hilarious!!! That is so funny and Avery is getting more and more beautiful:)

I'm so sorry to hear about you getting mastitis again. Poor you and if I were closer- I would take both your little girls for a few hours- so you could get some good relaxin' time in!
