This week is spring break so SD has been here since Saturday mostly hiding in her room. She hasn't showered since she's been here and has been wearing the same pajamas since Sunday- as in hasn't changed and I know that means undies, socks, all. I haven't said anything but I wanted to get out of the house today. I needed a hair trim and had a coupon for Great Clips so I invited SD since her hair hasn't been cut since November when I took her (and to get her greasy hair washed!) She didn't want to go so whatever. I tried to do something nice before her dance next Friday.

Friday evening, SD showed up at 630pm. DH didn't mention it to me for the first time since this mess. He usually mentions it to me but not this time. I didn't make a stink- she really doesn't bother me when she's here. She sometimes asks about the baby but won't hold her yet. She does seem interested so I let SD pick out the baby's outfit for today and SD seemed happy to do so.

This was weekend before last when DH dropped SD off but why? It was 2 of the small packs of diapers (maybe 24 in each?) and 2 single wipe packages from Target. She also told DH that she and her mom, GBM who said my newborn looks 'Asian' (as most newborns do with their swollen eyes), want to meet the baby- again, WHY do they think this is their right? I told DH I don't want BM dropping SD off or picking her up and thinking she can come in and meet the baby. Just no! Also, for DH's birthday, GBM bought him a sweater as usual and a sock/ headband set for the baby.

Baby girl born 1/31 at 8lbs 1oz and 20 inches after induction. The entire process was only 20 hours and she came after only 20 minutes of pushing (but 2nd degree tears). I am so overwhelmed with love and joy and DH has been so great. I'm finally pumping enough that he can help with night feedings and she is just such a good baby. She looks just like me with DH's eyes and hair color. And she was born with so much hair which was surprising!
