Last weekend Daniel, Lauren and the kids came down for a visit and to meet Molly. It was so nice to visit with them and spend time with my family. I hadn't really gotten out much at all since Molly has been born so it was nice to just go to my parents house and see everyone. Last week was a rough week with Molly and she wasn't sleeping much at all at night and during the day she would only sleep if I held her so I was exhausted by the weekend. My mom has been so nice to come and watch Molly while Layton is napping so I can nap too. I wouldn't make it without those naps here and there.

Here is Molly getting her first bottle from daddy. I ended up pumping and giving her a bottle for the first time in the middle of the night last week because I was struggling to feed her myself. I have never felt pain like that. Let's just say breastfeeding has been a challenge this time. Now I understand why people give up at the beginning. I've been to see the lactation consultants at the hospital twice now and have gotten so frustrated with everything. I think Molly and I are finally figuring things out and I've learned some different techniques to help her with her sensitive tummy and acid reflux. We are going back this week for a weight check to make sure she is gaining weight like she should and hopefully things will start going smoother for us soon. Everything with Layton was so easy so I just assumed it would be with Molly too.
Headed to our first trip to Dairy Queen Layton's favorite place to eat.
Layton loves to hold Molly.
