muhvinseja tildalle
first, thank you everyone for your good wishes about little maisa! i have been so happy reading your comments, thank you for thinking about us!
this weekend we celebrated tildas name day. we baked lemon muffins and had a lovely tea party for the sweet little girl. she really enjoyed the whole thing, it is so needed right now to do nice things with tilda. and to tell her more than often how loved and wanted she is for us.
she has had a few hard days, a lot of hitting, crying and just looking sad. it makes me feel terrible but also happy. this is just how she is supposed to feel when the second child is born. luckily we have had enough time to hold her and be just with tilda. my mum spend almost five days with us this week, i dont know how i would have managed with out her help. yesterday for the first time in two weeks jaakko got up from bed as usual and felt a bit better. today it has been the same, so maybe he is finally getting better. now as my mum is back home again that would really be great :).
maisa is also doing very well. she is only 10 days old, so sleeping and eating is all she does. plus a few hours "chatting" and looking around. usually first thing in the morning and the second time just when we try to go to bed. but anyhow i have been getting quite a lot sleep, between 5-7 hours a night. im so happy maisa has been sleeping most of the night and also kept the nursing moments short. but i am tired though. last night i woke up twice not knowing where maisa was sleeping (i really thought in her own bed). the first time she was next to me and the second time i had left her in our bed just next to our feet. she waked us up crying like never before her face covered with jaakkos blanket. thank goodness babies dont break easily.
im a little excited about next week. jaakko has three school days, im going to the sewing class with maisa (hoping she would sleep..) and maybe we will go to the open nursery as well. everything is different with two kids, all is new and i think the first days with us three will be exhausting for me. but also i cant wait to get started with the every day life. im so happy to have two lovely girls and i think our days together can be really nice.
