We’ve been home with Robert two weeks today and it has been wonderful and exhausting. We have learned so much about our little boy in these two weeks and we have learned a few very necessary parenting skills like bathing and changing baby. Robert really likes bath time as long as the water is running directly on him but he screams as soon as it’s time to get out. He hates getting his diaper and clothes changed but he forgets pretty quickly his indignation as soon as we pick him up again. He’s a very sweet, snuggly baby, and I still can’t get over how cute he is.
We had Robert circumcised yesterday and although we made sure the doctor used anethesia Robert screamed and screamed. He did not like being tied down to that table. He was inconsolable all day long, poor baby, but by around 8 or 9 last night he finally started acting like his old self again. Monday he has his first cardiologist appointment and next Friday he’ll go to his pedi for the first time. Robert will be baptised on Sunday, so overall this little guy is going to have a busy and exciting week.
I am doing well. I seem to be completely healed up from the birth, but the exhaustion is never-ending. I can never get more than two hours sleep at a time and it’s horrible, but it comes with the territory!
