How precious Ruthie is!!!!!! I have sooo enjoyed reading all of yals comments. Even though I wasn’t there I feel like I shared in it some how. Your mom just told me this thurs. about this website and I didn’t even know your were pregnant until almost the end. I wished I could have been there but maybe I can come and visit. Chris said you were coming for a week in Feb. I would love to make some time to spend with you and Ruthie. I can’t believe we haven’t kept in touch more. I am glad to hear that you are settled in and much happier now. I am soo impressed by your patience and stamina. As you know I am a planner also and it has impressed me how you have come thru all that you and Joel have. I have kept in touch with your mom as much as I could. I have been in and out of choir as well as you mom has. I know you will be a wonderful mom and Joel a great dad. Congratulations mom and dad!!!! Love and miss ya!!!!

Last night was much better even though she did have gas. She had it early enough so Joel could help and I didn’t have to do but one 1 1/2 hour wake time later on. Even then, Joel woke up each time I got up with her so that helped too.

Loving her little expressions! It might help if you get a book on tape or something to listen to at night, to help you feel less lonely but this time will pass and in hindsight will seem faster than it does now. Or if it gets really bad, just go sit in the bed with Joel. Yes, he’s sleeping but having him nearby might feel less lonely than in a separate room. You can prop up some pillows and sleep while she nurses or somethin’.
