Here She Is....(and a quick update)
Motherhood is both amazing and humbling! Oh, and exhausting!!! Zoe is amazing and she really is a dream. Breastfeeding is looking up, but it was a challenge initially. Our biggest issue right now is that Zoe is so sleepy at the breast. As a result, I have to follow each feeding with 15 minutes of pumping and a supplemental feeding for Zoe to make sure she gets enough food in her tummy. This makes for a long process and only leaves me about an hour and a half to sleep before the next feeding. Short naps really make me irritable, thus I'm running on very little sleep. I know it will get better. Trevor has been AMAZING!!! There is no way I could do this without him. We're both so in love with Zoe. She is God's greatest gift to us!!!

She is absolutely beautiful! Awwwwwe you poor mommy!! Don't forget to let others do things for you. I know no one else can really feed baby for you or take care of her like you, but ANYTHING else let others do.
I can't wait to hear the birth story!
poor thing!!! it takes up enough time just to FEED a newborn- but if you have to pump and re-feed- I can imagine how time consuming that is!!
Good job on the naps though! I think I've taken a total of two naps since Jacob was born (I'm a bad napper).
And Zoe is so cute- I can't believe how much hair she has! Can't wait to hear more!
