Sorry for not posting anything for awhile! It's been crazy, trying to get the house into shape for the baby shower we had today! The house looked great, by the way. It was the first time we were really able to go "Look at how different this house is!" Jon has worked so hard on everything in here, and it's so nice.

I'm having trouble typing because I'm holding Patrick at the moment. I'm trying not to use my left hand as much as possible. We tried to put him to sleep when Jon went, but Patrick wasn't having any of that. So I'm hanging out with him in his room for a little bit to see if that does the trick. I seriously hope this doesn't turn into the kid who only sleeps when he's being held thing.

I am starting to worry about a couple things now... like eating and poop. I decided that I need to keep a record of how much he eats and when, but today was so crazy it wasn't even worth it to try and track it. I don't think he's eating as much as he needs to. Which leads to my second concern - that I haven't changed a poopy diaper in a while. Neither has Jon. I'm going to chalk most of this up to the crazy transition to home from the hospital, and all the commotion that was going on here today.

The shower was pretty fun. We were able to see a lot of people we hadn't been able to for a long time, and they all got to meet Patrick. I'll definitely have to do laundry tomorrow to wash all the clothes he's gotten! Our hostesses were amazing - if you've never had the blue champagne cake from The Cake Gallery, you should try it sometime. Or I'll get it again sometime, and invite you over. Maybe for Patrick's first birthday.

I'm not sure how to go about setting a schedule for Patrick, since I'm awful at planning, so we'll see how these next two weeks at home go.

I promise there will be pictures soon.
