3 Weeks!

Gwen is 3 weeks today, which means Spencer went back to work :-(

So far her and I are managing fairly well. I am able to post typing one handed while nursing her, and am hopeful we will both take a nap when she is done. I was able to eat breakfast and lunch (while nursing) and was even able to take a shower while she napped in her car seat on the bathroom floor. These feel like tremendous accomplishments and if I can pull off a nap then the day will be a huge success.

Two other milestones: Gwen received her social security card in today's mail, and her nubbin (umbilical cord stump) fell off! But her bellybutton isn't quite complete yet, there is an inner nasty that will apparently dry out and fall off too, so we still need to wait for that to happen before we know if she will have an innie or an outie, and before we can have bath time (have to continue with sponge baths in the meantime).

In honor of Spencer and our first three weeks:
