Mommies with babies at Bradley reunion, 2/14/10
Marty, Molly and I went to our Bradley Method class on Sunday night (Valentine's Day) with our babies to tell the next class of expectant moms about our birth stories. We were really looking forward to the class and were so excited to see the other three babies (all boys) in our class. All of them were beautiful and nice and healthy. Here is a pic of the four babies and moms.

Molly's Aunt Liz and Uncle Bill came for a visit this week along with her oldest cousin Fae (who lives in DC). They were a big help holding her alot (and I know they didn't mind doing that).

Last Friday we hit a milestone: Marty, Molly and I went out to dinner together! We went to Silverado in Annandale (very close and yummy) and were only gone about 1.5 hours total from the house. Molly slept in her car seat the WHOLE time so we were very pleased. Tonight we are going to attempt to go out again. The doctor recommended not taking her out in publich too much until 6-8 weeks but I have to get out of the house a bit!

Speaking of doctors, Molly had her one month checkup yesterday and was 10 lbs, 3 oz. Neither of us thought she would be that big! 22 inches long now. She is doing great and the doctor was very pleased with her.

I have been cloth diapering Molly which has been surprisingly easy. The hardest part is just trying to figure out the best way to wash them (combination of hot water, rinsing, amount of detergent, etc.) I'll figure it out there. There is so much stuff on the internet about cloth diapering. There are all different kinds of cloth diapers nowadays and they can be really easy (even for Dads :) )

That's all for now. Time to get ready to go out to dinner again. yeah!
