She's just perfect. And she looks so much like Hayes did as a baby, it's almost bizarre to look into her face. It's like taking a trip in a time machine.
(Though, if I'm being completely honest, she's prettier than he was.)
We had a good day today. She napped after every feeding and is currently sleeping soundly. I'll wake her around 11 to eat and if the past few nights are any indication of what's to come for tonight, she'll wake every 3 hours on the nose rooting around like mad.
She's a professional nurser, that's for certain. And we've finally found a pacifier she likes. I've been opposed to pacis before now for a variety of reasons, but this child is different. She needs to suck nearly constantly and unfortunately for her, I'm not willing to be her personal pacifier. I'm hurting today for it, though, that's for sure. My breasts feel like they're going to explode at any moment. Perhaps they'll carry her through the upcoming growth spurt?
Tomorrow I'm hoping that Dr. Bourque will give me the all-clear for driving because not only am I suffering from a severe case of cabin fever, Mary Beth has dancing tomorrow and the boys will be starting soccer this week as well. I need the freedom to be able to drive! Though with the gas shortages they're predicting, perhaps it's better if I don't get the privilege back quite yet ...
