Molly at Play


Molly is now 6 weeks 4 days old as of today. I can't believe how the the time has flown by, and she will be 2 months old on August 11th!
Here is a pic of her playing on her Fisher Price Link-A-Doos Play Garden. She doesn't know how to do much yet, but she seems to like the sounds, and lights. :)
She is such a smart little girl.

Soooo Sleepy mommy :)


Took this today while I was doing some paperwork at the table in the kitchen.
So flippin' cute she is. :)
Love my girl.

Making room for baby...

Well, to say the least becoming a mom has changed my life...for the better I am sure. I just haven't found our groove yet. Molly , and I are still taking lots of naps, and I don't manage to get showered too early. Our goal this week is to get her nursery back in order, as we still haven't put away the spare bed since my mom left. We have also gotten tons of new clothes that I have to sort through! Molly is already quite the fashion horse!

I was purusing through recipes so I could cook a decent dinner. We have been having quite a bit of take-out the last week. We finally did a bit of shopping, and restocked some of our pantry.

Molly is 5 weeks old now, and it is amazing how much she has changed in that time. She is quite the little girl. She already has both of us hooked, and wrapped around her little finger.

Time gets away so quickly these days...I better get going for now.
Hope all is well in your world.
Cheers!

Oi Vey! It's Friday????

I could have sworn it was only Thursday!!!! Where did I lose a day??? No wonder Greg looked at me funny when I told him it wasn't Friday. Ok, nobody told me my days would run together!!!
I am totally losing it! :)

Oh my!

Well, the last few days...really the last month has been nothing but one thing after the other around here. Greg has had problems with having a growth on his thyroid for several months now. It has been an ordeal just trying to get that taken care of. Well, finally they decided to schedule him for a partial thyroidectomy right after Molly was born! So, he had that done last Wednesday. Then, if things couldn't get any worse, he develops a post-op staph infection!!!!! So poor Greg has spent the better part of 5 days in some sort of medical facility. He had us all scared, because as you know staph is nothing to mess with. It turns out he didn't have the nastier of the strains. I won't go into all the run around we got before getting a resolution. Let me just say, I am not very pleased with some of the service we got from the Vancouver Healthcare System.

They had to drain all the infection out, and then had him on some serious i.v. antibiotics for a couple of days.
He is home now, and on oral antibiotics 3 times a day. It is so good to have him home now. He sure missed his girls. :)
So, we are hoping that the next week we will be back to some sort of normalcy.

It has been a crazy month, starting with the birth of our daughter by c-section, and then this with Greg. Luckily my mom was here when Greg was going through his ordeal. It was a huge help on top of her helping with Molly.

She left this morning, so now the real challenges can commence. :)

Molly will be a month old on the 11th of this month. It doesn't seem like it should be that long now, but time has flown by.

Well, I hope that in the coming weeks, I will have only good things to report.
I hope this finds you all well.
Cheers!

Our Baby Girl is 3 Weeks Old Today!


Well, today our baby girl is 3 weeks old! It is so hard to believe that it has been 3 weeks already.
Molly is now above 7lbs, and growing everyday. We are doing well...still quite sleep deprived as I am still recovering from surgery, as well as Greg. He had a partial thyroidectomy this past week, and has a bit of an infection. So it has been tough on both of us, aside from being new parents. We will get there though eventually :)
I hope that you all had a great weekend, and that this finds you well.
