Here we are. The 2nd week of January 2012 and this is my 1st post of the New Year! It's been quite an adjustment having this little baby person come into our lives. The crying! The fussing! The crankiness! The pooping! The crying! And that's just me and the wife! (Rim-shot)
Anyway, we're parents. We were fortunate enough to have Sara's mom here for the 1st week or so of Evie Sue's life and that help was immeasurable. Then we had a few weeks to do the parenting thing on our own before Sara's best friend flew in from Minnesota and lent a hand. Her help was, once again, immeasurable. Just having someone in the house who's done this sort of thing before was very calming.
Now we're on our own again, at home anyway, and still trying to find our normal. How do we spend our quiet time? How often should the baby sleep? Eat? Cry? Why does she always soil a freshly changed diaper. Slowly but surely we're figuring things out.
I hope...
