1. This morning I came downstairs and set a fussy Wesley on the couch and then went into the kitchen to make a bottle. I put the glass measuring cup in the microwave to boil water for his bottle. That's when I heard the garbage truck outside. I asked Tom if he took the garbage out and he said No so we both ran out to the garage to put the garbage out. When we were done we came inside to a crying Preston. He had gone in the kitchen to make Wesley a bottle. He got a bottle down and nipple and then took the water our of the microwave. He poured the water into the bottle and then somehow it spilled and burned his hand. The poor little guy was just trying to help. I couldn't believe how he knew how to make a bottle - he is so observant. He doesn't like to hear Wesley cry. Whenever Wesley is crying, Preston says, "Help him mom."
2. My Visiting Teachers came today. Even though they have done so much for me this month (meals and playdates for Preston), they still came today to share a message (which was very needed after missing church for 4 weeks now). They also brought their kids which makes Preston so happy. All morning Preston kept opening the front door looking to see if they had come yet. Grace even folded some laundry for me while I was busy putting Wesley to sleep. Those little acts of service mean so much.
3. My mom came and woke me up from my nap at 5:30pm!! I didn't even know her and Heidi were coming over. They came right after the 3 of us had just laid down for a nap. They quietly came into my room and took Wesley downstairs so I could get a long nap. They had been there for about 2 hours while I slept. Thanks mom and Heidi - I am the happiest mom ever because I have so much help.
4. Wesley is one month old today! Time flies when you have a newborn... the past 4 weeks just all mesh together. So much has changed the month for our family - all wonderful. We all have definitely had to adjust to the new little one joining our family, but I feel like he now belongs and our family is more complete with him.
