Books and Baby, and Jenny's Visit

Asher's second week of life!

My parents left Sunday, and Jenny came in the day before that to take care of us this week. She was an angel. So wonderful with the boys and helpful around the house and took care of us all just so much. We felt so grateful and we just love being around her and wish so much we all lived closer. She also got Camden wearing his glasses full time in a week of time with him, so, she works magic.

Asher had his check up at the pediatrician and isn't gaining weight quite like they'd like to see, so we'll be back next week. He does not love his bassinet, but he does love his mom. Not a super sleep set up but we'll get to a better place soon.

We took family pictures on Wednesday which is no small feat when you are in postpartum and newborn life, but we couldn't print a Christmas card without Asher on it! So it felt like a relief to get those done. We also took Westin's class birthday treats on Friday and it was adorable. I walked over with Michael and Bennett while Jenny was home with sleeping Camden and Asher. They did the treats outside so we could come, and I loved how his teacher had each student in the class say something they like about the birthday boy. So sweet.

My books came!! They've been stuck in California much longer than we anticipated, so it was SO FUN to see them in Costco for the first time and Deseret Book, from friends and family that spotted them in Utah. My garage also filled up with our website inventory and it's fun to be all stocked up again. The missionaries helped Michael take all the boxes downstairs and then ate lunch with us.

Jenny left Saturday and I just cried. She is such a good sister to me and was so, so kind to come take care of our family this week. Transitions with babies are no small thing and recovering from a c-section with a toddler majorly complicates it, too, so I just appreciated her help so much. Michael's parents arrive tonight and we just continue to feel so grateful for all the support from our sweet families.

Books and baby! Exciting times and we're all tired :)
