Today was supposed to be the day. Claire's due date. We were supposed to have attended the birthing class, the baby basics class, finish painting the nursery, and so on. Instead, I had the 1am, 4am and 7am feedings, as Lynn needed a break. It just as well Claire came early, as we didn't need the classes and the nursery looks fine in beige. Claire weighed in a 7lbs, 9oz today. I am sure some of that weight was dried milk under her chins. So, before it turned into cheese, we gave her a bath. She is feeding like each meal is her last.
Tomorrow Claire gets to meet her grandparents from Syracuse, NY. While they see her almost every night on the webcam, tomorrow it will be in person. My mom is coming on Sunday. I can't wait for them to meet her, hold her, feed her, change her diapers, allow her parents to sleep.
All in all, the past 5 weeks have been wonderful and I am glad I have these pictures to remember things, and of course to show at her wedding.
