we've been adjusting well to being at home and are slowly establishing some sort of rhythm. yesterday was the first doctor's appointment, and that went well. i think nathaniel appreciates the fact that we are becoming more versed in using the carseat, so it is less like a torture device for him. i also had my first run-in with a scale since the birth, and i am actually about 8 pounds above my pre-pregnancy weight. i've still only attempted to wear maternity clothes, though, because looseness is still key.
