It's already been two weeks! We are feeling happy, tired, exhausted, overjoyed, and blessed! These couple of weeks have been challenging in different ways. WIth me having the c-section I havent been moving around very well until just a couple of days ago. It's so hard to depend on people for small things. My mom was here until this past Sunday, she was such a great help. She made me food(pupusas!), she watched Sofia while I showered, she drove us to the doctors. It was so nice having her here.
Last thursday, one week after Sofia's bday, I had to go to the ER. I was running fevers from Wednesday night until Saturday! Fevers, chills and sweats, on and off through out the day. At the ER they just gave me some antibiotics, my WBC was at 14000, which is high=infection. the doctor couldn't pinpoint the infection (my incision looks great). BUt and antibiotics worked because I haven't has fevers since Saturday.
Tuesday was Sofia's 2 week appt at the doctors. She did great. Her weight is already and 8.04lbs!! SHe is getting so big! She does really well with the Dr, no crying, no fussing.
The past couple of nights have been kinda rough. We don't know if Sofia is mixing up her days and nights, or if she is having tummy aches. SHe has cried(very loud) the past couple of nights. Its so hard because we don't know how to make it go away. She gets fed, burped, diaper changed and she still cries, and at that time in the night Jay and I are exhausted. I just pray for patience and guidance. During the day she does so great. We are starting the Baby Wise routine, so hopefully that will help. Anyways, my precious baby is waking up. Time to feed!
I will post some recent pics once I find my camera cord.

Hi honey! I want you to know I have been praying for you so much! I really understand how exhausted you feel right now. It is tough to even think clearly about what you need to do, because you are so wiped out.
Lord Jesus~
We thank you for this new life you have created. Thank you for Sofia's good health and good eating habits : )
I pray for Diana, that you would touch her body with Your healing hand, and restore her to full health. I pray that You would bless her with supernatural strength to get through these early days and weeks. Give her rest and sleep when she is weary, give her clarity of mind when she is tired and confused, and give her guidance and wisdom that can only come from You. You are the author of life, and You created motherhood. So I ask You to let Diana know what she is to do. I also pray for Jason, that You would comfort him and tell him how to care for his wife and daughter. Let him be sensitive to their needs. It is frustrating for a man to see his wife in pain or struggling, because he wants to 'fix it'. Let him know that You are there to help him, and help him rely on You.
I pray this in Jesus' name...amen.
Love you all!
