our sweet little baby is a whole week old!

Piper just gets more hilarious every day. i think it is mainly because she is becoming way more alert than she was the first few days. brett is loving it! he likes to be about a foot away from her face at all times. she doesn't seem to mind him. except maybe when he tries to take pictures of her. i'm not sure she's a HUGE fan of that yet. but she'll learn...since there's pretty much no chance we're just going to stop taking pictures! she's too cute!
so we made it through piper's first week and i think we're doing pretty darn good! we even went for a walk the other day. it was so gorgeous out and i definitely needed to get out of the house. i feel like i'm recovering really well.
piper eats like a champ and usually i'm glad. except when she just wants to keep eating for a billion hours at night. i like feeding her, but it does feel like nursing takes a huge portion of my day. and i feel like i have to plan everything around it. it hasn't been a big deal since i haven't actually DONE anything for a week, but still. i'm sure it will get easier to fit stuff in around it.
we took a GREAT (much-needed) nap this afternoon. piper's grandparents (my parents) are coming tonight, and i wanted to make sure we (i) would be awake enough.
We're really excited for my family to get here, but perhaps not as excited as my mom, who i think might explode if she had to wait another day to see piper!
