My mom, Susan, has been with us for the past few weeks from Colorado, but she is on the way back West tomorrow. She's bummed to be leaving us, especially Orion, and we're going to miss her, too!
She's been a big help around the house, shopping, and supplying us with cloth diapers so Orion can be a green baby! She's also helped with keeping the cats happy, fed, and attended to, and is a big fan of our little turtle, Toodeloo. That has allowed me to stay on the couch, get healed up, and spend a lot of time sitting with Orion on my lap. That makes those late night hang-out with baby sessions a lot easier, too, because if I need to sleep in or am a zombie all day it's ok...
Russell's mom, Jo Ann, has also been super helpful. She's been on the ball about making sure we're fed, even while we were in labor! She's been a great support, and we're really happy to have a grandma in town as well.
So here's to the grandmothers, or 'glam-mothers' as a friend quipped...
We're lucky to have such great moms, and Orion's lucky to have such fabulous grandmothers!
