I can't beleive its been a week! Here are a few of the highlights:
1.Andrew returned to work on Monday
2. Wednesday I had both boys by myself for the first time..
3.We had our first post- Jude playdate at home.
4. We took our first trip to walmart- just me and the boys- I am please to announce everyone survived..
5. I lost 25 of the 35 pounds I gained during the pregnancy
6. Working on getting Jude on a consistant nursing schedule- he is a sleepy head!
7. Working on Romans attitude..he is asserting himself in new ways now that he can put a sentance together..
8. Took 3 showers and enjoyed every one of them!
9. Survived yesterday and today on 4 hours of sleep and no caffeine...
10. Having meals delivered- yum-o!
11. cuddling a newborn baby again- what precious miracles they are!!
12. Falling in love with Andrew all over again- he is an amazing husband and daddy. He has been helping around the house, with the boys, giving me massages, praying over me and speaking scripture over me..I love staying up late in the evenings..snuggling in bed and just looking at Jude with him..its precious time...although we do sometimes fight over who gets to hold him ;-)
Also, THANK YOU to everyone that has been commenting, emailing, calling me, bringing dinner, sending cards....it means so much and is a HUGE blessing and encouragement...I have definaltey felt your prayers!! keep them coming!!!

Holy moly!!! You'be already lost 25lbs??? That's amazing! The other 10 will come off in no time! I can't believe it's been a week...time is already flying by. Give those sweet boys a kiss for me.(For the record, I'm talking about Roman and Jude, not Andrew! ha!)
Sounds like a great week! Please call me if you need something! Maybe some supper... ;)
What a BIG first week - 25 POUNDS?? that's just CRAZY!
I am soooo glad to hear that it is possible to survive with the hubby back to work...I am very nervous about that. Seriously, if you need anything, let us know. You don't even look like you had a baby in the wheelchair picture!
SOOO proud of you guys! See you soon!
Sounds like bliss! I can't wait to come meet Jude, but we're headed out of town. We will absolutely be bringing some dinner your way after we get back! You'll probably be back to pre-pregnancy weight by then -- wow!
You look great!! Congrats on the fast weight loss!! You are so blessed to have an amazing, helpful husband!!
