A Day in Our Life with Baby Bean

We've been home for 3 weeks now. Beaner is almost 4 weeks old! It's flown by. The first few weeks at home have been very tiring. My BP went from very high at the hospital to very low at home with the medicine I was on. I was lightheaded with headaches and fatigue. Now that I"m off the medicine, I realize how much of a fog I was in when we first got home. Now, I'm just "new mom tired" and I am handling that so much better.
Oh my this guy is cute!!

Okay. So. A Day in Our Life with Baby Bean.

Bean sleeps a lot and through the night (usually) only wakes up to eat about every 3-4 hours. K is great and takes him after the 6am/7am feeding so I can get a few extra hours of sleep or shower before he is hungry again.

Then K heads off to the gym and run errands and Bean and I get some fun play time while he is alert in the mornings. Yesterday we got out the play gym and he seemed to enjoy looking around. It's amazing how much they change, he can see us much better and seems to look at us when we talk.


The rest of the day is feeding, fussing, cuddling, a lot of sleeping, and a LOT of spit up. Normal baby type things. We are just soaking it up and loving on this little guy.  Bean and I will be so sad when K goes back to work next week and I know K is already missing him.
