I can't believe it has been 2 whole weeks since sweet little Neva arrived! The past two weeks have been two of the best and most trying weeks to date...but I wouldn't trade them for the world! Being a parent is amazing...and no one can prepare you for what you are going to endure! I could cry every day as another day passes or as Neva does something new...or even over a good poop! :) And I could laugh all day at the sweet faces she makes when she sleeps or the time I spend napping with her on my chest...that's got to be one of the best parts! Eric must be feeling the same way, as we had a conversation about how anyone will ever be good enough to marry Miss Neva. I reminded him that we have about 25 years to worry about this, luckily!
Today was our first outing as a family...and it felt amazing to get out of the house! Although it was quite surprising to see the fall colors emerging! Last time I was really out and about, it was still summer...but fall is definitely on it's way!! We've gone on short walks and spent time in the back yard, but today we ventured to Glenwood and stayed out of the house for several hours! Doesn't sound like much...but it was quite a task! It felt great to be out again and we all had a great time. And we are all exhausted afterwards! So, happy two week birthday, Neva! We celebrated by watching some good friends bellydance and listen to a little live music (from very far away, I promise)!!
We also tried our first real bath...which wasn't a huge hit, but I think we'll get there! It was a little harder than the sponge baths we have been doing but guess we can't do those forever!
As I said, I can't believe it's already been 2 weeks...how quickly time is going! Have a feeling it's not slowing down anytime soon...
