But, here's a quick glimpse into the past week: I had a bout with mastitis. Actually, I should say "have". Because, after 4 days on my antibiotics, my breast pain came back this afternoon (perfect timing for the 3 week growth spurt, I know!). I have an inkling I'll be at my OB's office tomorrow. Macey had an unexpected pediatrician's appointment due to what I thought was a nasty eye infection but thankfully turned out to be a clogged tear duct. There was also an episode where we attempted a trip out of the house with both kids, got stuck walking to the car in a monsoon, and then discovered we were locked out of our house when we got home. All of these factors resulted in both of my kids crying at the same time on multiple occasions while I wrapped my arms around each of them and could only laugh even though I wanted to join their cryfest so badly.
So, that's Week Two for you! But we're still learning the ropes and adjusting and I know we'll get the hang of this in time.
And just look at this face. So.stinkin.cute.
And, yes, it's been chaotic, but still-- these two are mine. What more could I ask for?

Good for Camden!!!!
I'm sorry week 2 wasn't the best. But like you said, you'll get the hand of it!
oh I'm jealous, Gage is ALMOST there. He has pooped 5 times on the potty in the last few weeks and has wall decals to show for it. But it still hurts him every now and then and he gets scared and the cycle continues.....then he'll wait and do it in his pants when he goes to bed....glad Camden has figured it out! And good luck with Week 3!
Mastitis is the worst! Its the only aspect of breastfeeding that really is a pain in the butt (or the boobs really). I've had a couple of rounds of it, but never bad enough to warrant antibiotics. Hope you feel better and your next week is less crappy!
I'm a new follower! I love reading your blog and your babies are sweet.
