Madelyn's 2nd week

Well, the Janzen family is just getting into the swing of things. We managed to make it thru the 2nd week of Madelyn's life, unscathed. Todd went back to work this week. So thank goodness that Grandma Carolyn was here helping us out for the week. It was absolutely wonderful to have her help and her company. Carolyn and I took Madelyn on her first shopping trip to Target. Of course, she didn't catch any of the good deals as she slept the whole way through!

I am happy now that Madelyn is feeding well and the cheeks are filling in. I'm loving this precious time bonding with her. Except of course, for the 3am feeding and then its more like a zombie feed session, skip the burping, and back to the bassinet sort of thing. My favorite thing this week is the little cooing sounds coming from the bassinet thru the night. ahhhh. If we could only bottle that preciousness so it could last forever!

Carolyn is back home and having Madelyn withdrawals. This was a special time for her. She is impressed by how easily the new family is adapting. Thanks for inviting Carolyn to help. It meant a great deal to both of us.
