I have to admit this is a bit intimidating, I have never blogged before. This is for our friends and family so that they might be able to track our progress as new parents, see pictures of our new son, and keep updated on all the minutiae of our life.
So this is my first day alone with JJ, Big Joe went back to work today. The first three weeks as a family were scary, wonderful, difficult, and beautiful. It was great to have the three of us (four if you count Shimmy) together almost every moment and experiencing all of this for the first time together. All the diaper changes, crying sessions, "could that be a smile"(s), feedings (late night and otherwise), infant gas (which is comically much like adult gas), etc. All of it occurring in our cramped bedroom that became the place for everything (meals, sleep, entertainment) for almost three weeks. And now here we are alone JJ and I. So far its going well, but I miss Joe. At the same time I am excited to be taking this journey. For the next few months at least I get to be a stay at home mom and be with my son for all those crucial firsts. I never saw this for myself, but now I want nothing more.
I hope all of you keep up with us as we document our lives together, I am certain that it will be an interesting trip.
