Thankful Thursday - 132

I started this blog last week before I went into labor. Instead of doing a whole new one, I'm just going to build on this one!

1. Sunny afternoons! I love these sunny days. It makes it a little more tolerable not being admitted to the hospital when it's so beautiful outside!


Katrina was at her parents' house on Monday and invited us to come over after nap-time to let the boys run around while we sat in the sun. DEAL!





2. Midwife in training. Dom comes to all my midwife appointments, and this week I was laying on the couch and he came over with the dog's collar to measure(?) my belly. It was pretty random and adorable. 




3. Family walk. We got our for our first walk with the whole family this week. It felt sooo good to be out. Also, this Beluga Baby wrap?! Hello freedom!!! Baby is happy and mommy is happy!



4. Newborn cuddles <3. Sorry Dominic, but I am enjoying the first week with Emilia much more than the first week you were home with us. It's so profoundly different this time around. I keep waiting for it to feel impossible. I'm sure the first time she pulls an all-nighter, or gets colic all evening I will look back fondly on these days. 











5. Fun stuff for Dom! David has been home this week, and we've had lots of help from family as well. It has been so so nice to have that entertainment for Dom so I can focus on Emilia. 


Okay, so this isn't fun stuff, but he's watching Daniel Tiger on David's phone (his diaper change activity), and playing with his boobs. I can't handle the hilarity.

My parents found this play kitchen for free on their way to our house, so stopped to pick it up. It fits perfectly in our dining area, and Dom is SO excited about it. First thing he does every day is run over to it and start opening and closing and rearranging the cupboards.

Got the water table set up for those hot days!

Our outing to the midwives on Monday. He thought the BP thing was a doppler. He was trying to hear the baby in his belly...

Fun trip to the grocery store with Dad

A nice long (for him) walk to the park!

He is such a big boy all of a sudden. No longer the baby!
