Swaddling ... and missing Mike

I'm getting pretty good at this whole swaddling thing. Zoe really does like to be burrito-fied. I'm also getting the hang of taking care of Zoe and her needs. At this point, we no longer have to wake her up every two hours at night to feed her. She already knows when she's hungry and is able to wake herself (and me) up. Mike is still working at his new job in Carpinteria. Sometimes he commutes from LA. Sometimes he stays at his parents' place in Woodland Hills. As much as I love taking care of Zoe all by myself (not really by myself since have my family here), I really do miss Michael. It still feels like something is missing when he's not here. Hopefully we can figure out a housing situation soon so that we can all be together as one family. We are both making sacrifices for each other ...

For now, I'm enjoying every single moment with my Zoe. I find myself just staring at her in awe and still can't believe that she's ours and is here to stay. She's growing and changing everyday and I make sure to send Mike a daily picture so he can see her progress.

I'm so thankful to have my family here with me helping in any way that they can. I know it's a big burden off my shoulders to have so many people pitching in to help. Even if its just holding her for an hour so that I can take a shower or a nap ... thank you Jesus for all the people in my life!
