At 11:00 a.m. Parker was officially one week old!
It is so amazing to think about what can happen in a week.
- We checked into the hospital Sunday night and began the induction process.
- Parker was born the next morning.
- We were in the hospital until Wednesday with a flurry of well-wishers, doctor/nurse visits, and a not-so-experienced nursing student.
- Wednesday night was our first night home and obviously kind of stressful. I am the typical worried mom and I woke up every 15-20 minutes to make sure Parker was breathing.
- Thursday through Sunday we had a lot of time to get used to this new way of life. Quite a few nice and generous people stopped by to bring us meals, gifts, and just to catch a glimpse of Parker. We've only gotten a meal for ourselves one night so far since being home, and somebody is bringing us dinner tonight. Feeling totally blessed!
- Today, we'll probably lay low for a while. But we have been thinking about getting out of the house to see a movie, and probably bringing Parker. She's a really quiet baby and doesn't cry much, so I think we could pull it off.
All in all, everything is going well. I am trying so hard to make Haven feel important and included and just to learn how to balance two kids.
And Parker actually slept really well last night!...knock on wood.

Can't believe she's a week old! The bassinet is really nice so far!
