Numbers

Yesterday, I would have been 37 weeks pregnant
On Sunday, you will be 4 weeks old, 28 days old
You were born at 33 weeks, 7 weeks early
You spent 17 days in the NICU
We've had you home for 9 days
You've already gained 1 pound
Sometimes you eat every 3 hours and sometimes only 1 hour
I was going to count diapers and loads of laundry, but the fog in my brain set in, so there are no numbers
The days have turned into an endless list of times you eat, poop and pee
Literally, I'm keeping a list.
I love you more each second that ticks by

Dishwasher... Goodbye.

This is our dishwasher, sitting in front of our building.  We have not had great luck with our kitchen in the past 8 months.  You might remember that the gas in our building broke back in April so we couldn't cook for 4 months while I was pregnant.  Well, a few days before I went into labor, our dishwasher broke.  So, in between commuting to the hospital to see and hold our beautiful boy, and pumping every three hours, we've had to wash dishes.

Yesterday, our Super surprised us with a brand new one! Whew!

So goodbye old dishwasher.....may you be hauled away soon.
