Storme'n in

Storme'n in

now it´s sunday and we just finished breakfast. our first night with baby j was wonderful. however, i gave h a scare! we agreed to alternate feedings every 2 hours. heid had taken her around 10pm with the plan to wake her up around midnight if j didn´t wake up herself. so, i went to sleep in preparation for my shift later. next time i woke up, i looked at the clock and saw 1:04, then i looked and saw h facing me on the other bed. my thoughts included the following: where is baby j? did h roll on to her? did she forget j was on the bed with her? did she feed her at midnight?, etc. well, i jumped out of bed verbalizing many of these thoughts of which h heard "WHERE´S THE BABY?!" this, of course, woke her up with her heart thumping!! she said, "right there, right there (pointing right behind her)". mind you she is wrapped in a lime green blanket which cannot be missed by most people!! laughing...it is just a sign of some of the new momma paranoia i am becoming quite accustomed to! smile...overall, we have been blessed with a wonderful, beautiful baby. she hasn´t cried a bit..just a few whimpers when cold or a poopy diaper. other than that she grunts and groans and rolls her eyes quite a bit. smiling...as for eating, she isn´t like the other storme girls, that is for sure!! we have to persist in order to get her to eat her quota of 2 oz every 2-3 hours. off to give her vitamins...loves to you all!
