Back Into The Mix: 4 weeks post-pregnancy

Four weeks after having my baby I couldn't wait to get back to teaching my classes! I had a natural birth and recovered very quickly. I was able to do a third of the class myself, until I got winded and tired and gave it over to two amazing friends and fellow instructors.

New Hat Adjustments

Motherhood. Exhaustion. I am beginning to believe that the words are synonymous. Late nights. Long days.

I am bound to a schedule that doesn't always makes sense. Although I am nursing, Elora does not always want to eat every 2 hours. Sometimes she'll go 2.5 hours or as long as 4 hours. The longer stretched of time are at night when she sleeps. Last night she slept nearly 6 hours.

Elora's First St Patty's Day

2 weeks post-pregnancy

I'm currently 2 weeks postpartum and as you can see...EXHAUSTED! My Belly is going down rapidly due to breastfeeding. I'm still getting the hang of my new "Motherhood" hat. Long days. Longer nights. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. Being a mom is the most wonderful thing in the world!

Elora Danan: My New Hat

So I've been a little distracted with my new hat. My precious newborn daughter. Her name is Elora Danan. She was born last Friday, and is perfect. I am currently BF and sleep is rare for my husband and I. We are grateful to have my mom, 'Lita - short for Abuelita, is here helping us out. I hope to be posting again very soon; however sleeplessness has taken its toll on me. Please be patient as I grow accustomed to this new 'hat'.

Here is a picture of my precious child and one of my beautiful family!
