So thank you to my mom for watching Charli while we went to church for a couple hours. We ended up leaving early since Kelly is starting to get a cold. Plus if I had to be honest I wanted my baby back. It's hard to sit in church with everyone asking you how your baby is and how they want to see her and to not have her there sucked. But it's best if she doesn't go around the ward for a couple more months.
Although I did love being able to hear the amazing talent in our ward. Our Ward choir is awesome. We have so many talented singers and musicians. I also loved the older couple that talked. I was very happy to finally see my Charli.
After we got to my parents we snapped a family photo and then we hung out till we ate breakfast for dinner. I could tell that Charli had done a number in her diaper which ended up being a bath in grandmas shower because it was totally up to her belly in poop. Gross. Once again I don't know what I would do with my mom showing me ways of doing things and for always being so caring, patient and loving to our family.
It was nice to sit and visit with Kelly's parents and grandma smith. We are so lucky to have such great people around us. I am truly grateful for each and every one of them.
Lately Kelly and I have talked about how excited we are for when we can make this time of year magical for Charli. It has brought up our memories of Christmas when we were kids. I almost wish that Charli was a little older so we could that this year.
I am excited for this upcoming week. I will be going to lunch with friends, finishing up some shopping, taking around neighbor gifts, seeing my family a lot, Chinese lunch on Christmas Eve, friend parties and of course spending time with my favorite people Kelly & Charli (I guess Nala too... I still love that little pup)
I realized this week how lucky I am to have been born in a time that I could heal so well from having a baby and being surrounded with great medical staff. I am so happy that I have been able to feel back to normal so quick. I really can't wait to be cleared to start working out again and eventually get myself back into dancing.
Last night Charli did a 6 hour stretch. She normally does about a 5 hours every night. I am so grateful for a baby who loves sleep and is so calm. It makes it so much easier for me and I know when she starts to wake up its a diaper change and feeding time. I use to think I would be so mad to get up in the middle of the night but once you wake up and see that sweet face looking at you their is a piece in my heart that just swells with joy. If I had to admit it's one of my favorite times with Charli.
It is crazy to think that she will be 5 weeks old tomorrow. How can time go by so fast already??
