AW: Thanks Nicole!!!

Nicole just sent me a new mommy gift and the boys new brother gifts, so I wanted to say Thank you and brag about them!

Alexander got a cool Melissa and Doug truck and car set (which he has been playing with for a half an hour!) and Benji got a robot Angeldear lovey. I just put it with him in the swing, and it made me remember how much Alexander loved to put his lovey against his face and swing the day away Big Smile

And I got some Burt's Bees products to use on this ravaged body of mine, haha!

Thanks, Nicole, best labor buddy ever

Yay Nicole! What nice gifts! Jilly, I bet it was awesome to get such a sweet surprise in the mail.

Oh good! So glad everything made it there safely (even if it was shipped in separate packages!) You are so welcome and have more than spoiled ME over the years!

How is Alexander doing with the whole big brother thing? How are YOU doing? Give us an update as a mom of 2u2!

I'm living in an unrealistic world because Chris is still home, getting me things, dealing with A, and cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner. Today is his last day with us. So it should be really interesting to see how it goes tomorrow. Alexander is completely nonplussed by the whole thing. Doesn't really even notice the baby in there besides once in awhile saying "BABY!" and pointing at him. Probably because the baby isn't really a big presence yet...he's a big sleeper.

I am good besides a massive hemorrhoid. Ew. My breasts are finally evening out and being more manageable and I even managed a shower, which is always good!

Since we are just taking one day at a time, so far it's been a success!

Good luck on your own tomorrow! Can't wait to see how A grows in to his big brother role. Hopefully your mom and MIL can help out here and there (I know they are pretty supportive!) and you can get many showers in the near future! Also, I want more pictures of Benji, please and thank you!
