Milo is getting cuter and more wonderful by the hour -- who knew that was possible! I've been getting much better at breastfeeding, and Milo is too, so that is a big relief (not that we have it down perfectly, but it's all looking positive from here on out). Now if I can just figure out how to get more than 4-5 hours of sleep within a 24 hour period...
I have a dear friend staying with me (Heather Taylor from Putney) for the next two days, and then she'll go home and I'll be striking out on my own -- but after having so much help for the first two weeks, I feel sure that I'll be able to handle it (I also have a fantastic post-partum doula who's helping us on a a regular basis for the next two weeks).
The second photo above is of my mom and my grandmother with Milo and me -- four generations of Francos. My grandmother doesn't travel much at all, so it was pretty lucky that we got to overlap briefly -- I'll treasure this photo forever, don't we all look totally happy and enamored of Milo!?
The first photo shows the wonderful "bug" pose that Milo really loves -- he often falls asleep on my chest with his legs curled up underneath him like this against me -- he now has the nickname "Bug," for which he may never forgive me, dear boy. But it is a mother's prerogative to give her offspring silly nicknames, right?!
Now let's see if I can take a shower today -- or at least brush my teeth!
