1. Sleep when Hana sleeps. (I knew this one, but it's REALLY true, because I never know when my next opportunity for ZZZZ's may come.)
2. Day is night, night is day. It's all the same to Hana.
3. Single parents deserve medals of honor and a million dollar prize. I don't know what I'd do right now if it weren't for Pete.
4. It actually does take weeks to recover from childbirth. Ow.
5. Just when I think I know Hana's habits, they change.
6. Visits from friends are a bright spot during hard days.
7. The satisfied eyes-closed smiles Hana gives after eating are just the most adorable things on the planet.
8. It's nice to have an excuse for the house to be a disaster area.
9. For such small creatures, babies sure do create a lot of laundry.
10. Enjoy the moment.

so very true, every single one.
ReplyDeletewish i could come visit in person. will just have to settle for "email" visits.
a good friend of mine who had a baby 6 months before hudson was born told me that it really does take about 6 weeks to start to feel like yourself again physically and i found that to be true. stay off your feet and take good care of you. now the sleep deprivation and the night/day thing is another story that will last for all of us much, much longer.
love and kisses and hugs to you three.
