Busy, busy!

We've had a very full week of babyhood. Tuesday, Sophie and Michelle started their New Mom's Group at the local health centre. It's great to see a couple women from our prenatal class with their babies on the outside, and it's nice to be with new moms. Later that night we were guest speakers (well, I was the speaker, Sophie was the eater) at a breastfeeding class. It's amazing how far we've come...2 months ago we were the one's in a breastfeeding class, anxiously awaiting the arrival of our baby, trying to imagine what was to come. I felt like such an expert mom! Wednesday, Sophie's cousins Rachel and Kate spent the morning--3-year old Kate held Sophie for about 3 seconds, but 6-year old Rachel was much more determined to hold her the whole visit, even sneaking the baby out of her swing when I wasn't looking! Michael's work threw us a lovely baby shower on Thursday and completely spoiled us. Friday was our 6 week check at the doctor and Saturday I needed a nap!!! It's good to start having a life with baby...I just need to remember to rest every once in awhile.
