6,570

Matt informed me this morning that 6,570 is the number of days until Christopher turns 18. I cried immediately because that doesn't seem like that many days.  And Christopher turned one day old today, so now we are down to 6,569....  and he also got circumcised. In fact that is where he is right now. He has been gone for 20 minutes and Matt and I feel like it's been an eternity. 

On a lighter note, I got to get out of bed today and walk around and I got to shower this morning!!! YAY! That was quite eventful since I almost fainted in the bathtub- what do they expect when all they let you eat the first day is jello and broth. PUH-LEASE. This girl needs carbs on a daily basis- surgery or not.  Mattie and I worked on swaddling as well today- even though I can honestly say we are not swaddlers. Hopefully we can perfect that soon because Christopher does love it.

I love his eyes... and so does Matt- because he is

staring away at them!

As I said before all of our family is in town- Lucky Christopher got to have his picture taken with both of his grandpas and his daddy. (I guess I didn't really do such a good job of getting Christopher in that picture huh?!)

Matt, Christopher and Jim- 3 generations.

Christopher also had his first non-family member guest today- Auntie Dana.  He was so thrilled to meet her.

Cindy's husband also came to meet him after work today, so Christopher got to meet his Uncle Mark.

As of right now we are going home on Friday... BUT they mentioned to me this morning that we MAY go home tomorrow. I certainly hope so. I am so ready to be at home with my little family. Unfortunately, I am having the worst gas pains ever... IN MY SHOULDER. So weird. They shoot through my whole arm, into my neck, and down my side. I think that's a very odd side effect of c-sections but apparently it can be one.  Hopefully that doesn't stop their decision to let me go home.

Love to all of you!! :)
