Mommy's First Outing

So Mommy got to drive all by her lonesome today! :) LOL. Emma and I went to the new mommy's support group at Riverside, and then we went over and borrowed the scale at the women's center. "Little" Emma is up to 8lb, 2oz -- she was 7lb, 2oz just 8 days ago! Mommy continues to be very proud of her weight gain, especially since she's just a BF baby. :)

The support group was... ok. Mostly older babies (7-9 months) and it appeared that many of the moms had been coming for some time. But we learned a few things and probably will go back periodically. I imagine it'll be more helpful once I have questions, and especially when we're getting ready to think about childcare.

Then we went and visited Mommy's work to show off! Only 2 people were there, but it was still fun and everyone enjoyed holding her. She was such a good baby the entire time.

We changed two diapers and did one feeding while she was out, which was a first for us. Again, she did really well and Mommy did ok too. Strange how something like just getting out of the house becomes such a "BIG" deal for us!
