So, our first week home with Owen, Brandon was home as well. What a lifesaver! He was truly amazing. I am so thankful for him and his love for our children.
Autumn was adjusting to Owen being at home, and me having to tend to him so much. And not to mention the fact that I couldn't (and can't) pick her up for two or three weeks, due to the c-section. But she's adjusting pretty good. She's as emotional as ever, but the jealous bug hasn't hit her yet...so that's good. Autumn wants to be the big helper, and she tries her hardest.
Brandon had special things planned for him and ae. This way they were able to spend some time together. My last night in the hospital (July 4th), he went home with her and they watched fireworks. She had a hard time being away from us, so spending that night together was really good for her.
On Monday, they went grocery shopping, and they bought a little pool for her to play in. On Tuesday, they just spent some time together playing inside and outside. Plus she was able to play in the pool. Wednesday, he took her on a lunch date. She got to pick anywhere she wanted to eat. And of course, she picked McDonald's (which is the one place he never takes her). Thursday, he took her to Opry Mills, so that she could do a build-a-bear. She loved it! She made a horse, and her name is: Lucy Autumn. Friday, the two of them went bowling for the first time. Owen and I went along for the ride, but they were the bowlers. She liked it, but struggled a bit, because her ball was green and she really wanted a pink one. So that put a damper on things for a while, but then we were able to turn things around and she had fun again.
It was so sweet to see the two of them spending so much time together. For him to pay so much special attention to her, when I really couldn't. I am so thankful for this man! He's an amazing husband, but to see him as a daddy...wow!!! Now, that's just beautiful! I am blessed...my babies are blessed! I am so thankful for my God, my husband, my adorable little girl, and my precious tiny little boy. I couldn't ask for anything more.
