An unexpected week...
This week has definitely been a blur, and much different than I would've ever expected. Monday afternoon I felt as if I had the flu. I had a fever and Ms. Frizzle told us to go to the ER to be checked out. After waiting forever, an IV, a very emotional Allyson, and some blood work, they told me I had developed mastitis. So we stayed in the hospital until Thursday! In those four days, Mr. Eli decided to test our patience by only sleeping after 4am every night, I ate my fair share of hospital food, and felt as if I lost a whole week.
On the bright side, coming home yesterday was the best feeling ever. Finally settled at home; Eli slept well last night. Rested, today, means that he slept from 3am-6am and then 7:40am-10:40am. Score! When did my body become capable of living this way?? Thankfully it did though! I don't mind it one bit because his sweet face makes it all worth it.
This week:
Eli found his thumb on his own. So sweet.
I have realized he really is a little man. Gas, has a whole new meaning. Boys will be boys!
I am so thankful for overall good health. I can't imagine living in a hospital.
My mom and I laughed through our exhaustion on multiple occasions.
We will have family/newborn pictures taken on Sunday! Can't wait!
I am hoping next week will be a little more smooth and steady. It's the weekend though and we're looking forward to Sunday... family day when everyone is home :) Ps. Almost 2 weeks old. Can you believe it!?! Cherishing every moment!
He was ready to go home too
