in some ways it has been laid-back-lounge-on-the-chair-and-cross-your-feet kind of easy. in other ways - in breastfeeding ways - it has been toes-curling-drive-me-crazy-what-the-heck-am-i-doing not so easy. but i am daily resting on a good friend, good wisdom and good hope that we are succeeding - despite the soreness, despite the late nights, and today, despite the thrush. i said with addison that breastfeeding was the hardest thing i ever tried...and i stand close by that statement with riley saying it is the hardest thing i have ever done. but i am doing it. praise God!
and for you aunt sha-sha, a up close three week pic. he looks so much like sister when she was a baby. i haven't gotten one of the two of them yet since little miss has had a yucky cough. but soon i will. in the meantime, he doesn't mind holding the spotlight. he knows he is handsome already.
that is about all for tonight. i am so sure you came here excited to hear small chronicles of feeding. sorry if it has been too much information. but it has been a journey. one that i came into not willing or accepting defeat. and one i am proud to say i am accomplishing. no matter how hard it is. here's to us little man!
