Strrrrretch!My husband has been an amazing helper since the birth of Mya. I don't know what I would without the support of him and my family. Last night he gave me what I consider to be the best Mother's Day present ever. He instructed me to sleep upstairs for the night and he would take care of Mya so that I could get some solid rest. I was able to pump before bed and one quick session during the night which took care of her needs. What a nice break!
As a Mother's Day gift from Mya, she is resting peacefully in her swing. Max never took to his so I'm giddy at the thought that we have another soothing mechanism available to us. The other one that she is fond of is the Bjorn. However if you'll remember back to Max's newborn days you'll know that I spent ages with him attached to me in the Bjorn. We nearly grew into Siamese twins. I'm not going there again so am hopeful that she'll take to the swing.
Max hasn't had any specific gifts for me other than being his cute self. Here's a cute Max story to share from yesterday. My sister and niece came over to keep my company while Alex was out. Max began chanting, "food, food" to Shelby. Shelby said, "Max do you want some food? What do you want to eat?" His immediate response was, "hot dog!" His communication skills have been growing by leaps and bounds the past few months.
Okay, back to reality here. Hope you all enjoy a great Mother's Day!

Good man Alex!
I'm so glad you got some sleep - and so glad she is taking a bottle. IF we ever have another, I am really going to try harder at that!!!
