Eleanor

Evening of day two watching the boys, Leah and Dave came home with baby Eleanor. So so so precious. My heart is full. I held her and held her. I forgot all the adorable faces and sounds babies make.

Helped Leah and Dave get settled then checked into the little airbnb casita that I booked. I fell into bed and read and slept hard.

Morning. Quiet time then curbside at Mojo’s Coffee for cinnamon rolls and latte’s then back to Rosewood ave to get more baby and grandson time.

What a crazy morning. Lots of fussy boys and attention seeking and regression. Lots of visitors at the door then Terri and Greg came. Too many people for a tiny space. We sensed Leah and Dave getting pretty tired (Eleanor apparently nursed from 10-3) so Leah put Henry down for his nap and I took Emmet to the casita.

Scott joined us at the casita and after naps, we went back to Rosewood. Everyone was in much better spirits. Lovely play and baby time. I made chicken and rice and Scott gave the boys their baths. Bedtime for bonzos and Grandma and Papa left for the casita.

Eleanor is precious and perfect. She seems so tiny. She weighed 7.11 but Leah had nursed her prior so she may have weighed less at birth. She has the tiniest most perfect features, little nose and lips. Her little eyes roll around and search for mine. She loves to stretch out her limbs.
