I now have a baby that is six weeks old and I am hoping that my life will slowly get in order. After weeks of Evelyn sleeping all day and staying awake until around midnight, I am striving to put her on some sort of schedule. Result of day # 1, she went to sleep at seven and didn't wake up again until midnight (then went right to sleep again until 4, then 8, Yay!) I was actually able to spend the evening with Patrick, versus us being in separate rooms alternating between relaxing and holding a fussing baby. I am also beginning to get things done around the house. While it is not as tidy as it was before Evelyn was born, the house is slowly returning to a state of normalcy and I am actually making dinners again. We are slowly beginning to establish some sort of routine, and some days are definitely worse than others, but I am beginning to remember what it is like to have a baby around.
I originally started this blog in order to share my thoughts about everything. However, I apparently have fewer thoughts than I supposed so, it has turned into a basic journal of what our family is up to these days.
