Firsts

     Lila is 7 weeks old now, and had many firsts this week.  Her first time wearing 0-3 month clothing, her first time wearing size 1 diapers, her first real smiles and coos, her first diaper blowout (yuck!), her first time sleeping in her crib, and her first time going out to eat.  She has been such a good little girl! She's eating and sleeping well, having more alert time, showing interest in her surroundings, and is well-behaved.  I've been able to take her to Target, Shoprite, and out to dinner all without any issues. She's so easy going and rarely cries.  She does have fussy time in the early evenings, but overall is perfect.  We're so lucky!

     She'll be having another first on Monday, one which I'm not too happy about.  Her first time home all day without Mommy.  Although I'm still not completely healed, I'm going back to work this Monday.  Fortunately I don't have a very physical job and can take it easy, so I should be okay.  Emotionally, I'm sure I'll be a wreck! I can't believe I'm going to leave my little girl for the whole day.  Daddy took the week off so at least she'll be in good hands, but I have enjoyed being home with her and am afraid to miss anything!  But I do miss my students and I love my job, so in a way I'm also looking forward to going back.  Hopefully Lila will settle into a nice schedule and maybe will start sleeping through the night. I'm going to miss our mid-morning nap together!
