trying to keep up

I feel like I'm living in a little bit of a time warp - most of my days and nights blur together and I'm usually not sure what day it is.  Since Adilyn calls the shots and is on her own, ever-changing feeding schedule, I pretty much am here to make sure she's fed when she's hungry.  Don't get me wrong, I love it - it's just kind of odd trying to operate in the 'real world' when I find myself waking up at 3am, eating lunch at 2 or 3pm, showering whenever I think I have a spare 15 minutes and I'll be honest - spending a LOT of my time in sweatpants! :)
So, what I'm trying to say is - I'm a little behind...trying my best to keep you all updated, but more importantly, making sure my little girl is nourished!

Dan surprised me with these beautiful flowers on Valentine's Day!  Adi and I tried to get a picture..though we had some trouble getting a good one of both of us :)



Also, I'm a little late on this too, but here's one of Adilyn at one month old!



Today we ventured out - unfortunately, I had to take Adilyn to the Hospital to get another metabolic test.  She only cried a little bit when they pricked her foot to get the blood; but she calmed down right away and was fine the rest of the time!  I am SO thankful for that, because I was very anxious to take her there alone, since the last time around was quite traumatic - for her and for me.  She cried the entire time - they did it wrong the first time and had to prick her other foot too...This time was smooth and we were able to run some other errands and enjoy the beautiful weather too!

I'm starting to feel a little more like a 'normal' human being these days.  Adilyn has been sleeping about 5 hours in between her overnight feedings the last couple of days - which has been AMAZING for me!  I'm feeling pretty spoiled, but am thankful for the rest!
