Visitors and worries
This week we have had someone visiting every day! My mom was in town and her sisters live close enough that they wanted to come by and see Claire and Shay, then once she went back home we had Chris's friend and family come see us. Life will hopefully get into a routine soon and we will be able to handle the new baby in the house without going crazy. I am a little worried about when Chris has a 12 hour shift during the day when Claire is going to be awake and we have to find things to do! I also worry about bed time without someone to watch Shay while I bathe and get Claire ready for bed, so more problems to worry about. I'm sure I will figure it all out and I plan on using a wrap to hold Shay for some of the day.
Matching!
These matching outfits were what we wore for our first outing to eat with my mom and the colors worked so well that even one of the servers commented on it when they passed. I was trying to get pictures of the girls together and Claire holding Shay but she acted scared when I put Shay between her legs. I look forward to many more matching days, like at church we all wore yellow! Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture because we were all eager for lunch and nap time after getting home.
Claire
Still getting used to having her sister here but seems to be understanding the mamaroo is for Shay and she likes to turn it on when we put her in it. She had a lot of fun with her Nana and Great aunt on Tuesday back at the aquarium, and waking up with Nana every morning was a huge relief for me! It is weird how bringing a tiny human home has changed how I see Claire. She used to be such a small girl, but now I feel like she is growing by the second! Her hands, feet, and everything is so big that I feel like I'm losing time with her!
Shay
She is eating a lot and spitting a lot back up then eats more...but her poops are normal and she is sleeping great. I forget how much newborns sleep! She is still up every 3-4 hours to eat of course and when she is awake and we are hanging out she is so cute. She has some intense burps and farts sometimes that make us laugh, and she is really wiggly when we change her cloths and diapers. We are just so in love with our new baby girl! I got a new double stroller for the girls and once I got it put together Claire enjoyed playing with it in our living room before I got it out in the garage.
