Either Ramblings or a List

If I tried to post in paragraph form, I'd ramble. Most likely nothing would make sense to anyone but me, so I'm going to just make a random list of what I think of.

1. Being a mommy is really hard and exhausting.
2. I love nursing. It's the sweetest time for me right now. Well, that and the precious few minutes alone with my hubby before we fall asleep, or Caleb wakes up.
3. Nursing was incredibly difficult at the beginning. I almost gave up, but I'm thankful that my hubby wouldn't let me.
4. God has given us lots of extra grace and physical endurance this past week.
5. Caleb is absolutely perfect.
6. My hubby and I have to laugh a lot, especially when changing and feeding, changing and feeding. Otherwise, we'll go crazy.
7. Newborn poop is weird and gross-looking, but it doesn't stink too bad. Poots, however...
8. We go through onesies and sleeping-outfits like crazy! Old one off-new one on-cue the spit up.
9. My hubby has been a refuge and help to me since we entered the hospital. Now, we're at home, and he's done more for me than I could ever thank him for. I'm scared to be here without him next week, even though others are coming to help.
10. My back hurts a lot and often. Caleb's heavy, and I'm pretty weak. Hope we can order one of those Moby wraps soon. We're poor right now.
11. The house stays disastrous. The kitchen is never caught up. Dishes are either dirty or still in the sink. The floor feels sticky in places, and there are breast pads and random other boob-oriented stuff everywhere!
12. Breast pumps are from the Lord. At least, the Medela "Pump in Style" is. However, it'd be nice if it was hands-free. It takes both my hubby and me to get it situated.
13. The post-partum period so far would have broken me if I didn't have my hubby. He has ideas that I don't think of concerning sleeping and feeding. He researches everything, so that we can make the best idea. He loves Jesus and tells me how he's proud of me and loves me.
14. Formula is not evil and from the devil.
15. Suddenly, it's raining really hard. Nice...

Okay, all that and more are passing through my mind these days. Caleb's snoozing, and I need to clean up a little while I have a minute. Yes, I know I should be sleeping, but it's hard when I see the house this way. Grrr...
