It's hard to capture the euphoria of the last few days in pictures, let alone in words. Luke is sweeter than honey, and I am a very happy mommie. I feel really good physically. Honestly, I barely feel like I gave birth a few days ago! Nursing is going well, and though we're lacking a little sleep, it's not unbearable. He only wakes up to eat, then he falls right back asleep, so we're not up with a crying baby or anything.

I attribute a lot of the ease to my mother. She's been here, taking wonderful care of us all, making great meals and cleaning like a crazy lady. The kids have loved having Grandma to pester... poor Mom. They've enjoyed it though, and believe me, so have I! She left today and took them with her, to my mother-in-laws house through the weekend. They'll be running country wild for a few days, which I love. They'll be back by Monday, and we'll start our official life as a family of five on our own. I am excited, a little scared, but mostly just content.

I have a lot to say, and I promise I'm going to get to it all, plus I'll add more pictures! But for now, it's time to feed the little cowboy.
