Smile, 55 million, PREGNANT!!: Week One...

Well we officially survived our first week, and to say it was a busy one is an understatement. I will start by stating that for all of you who were wondering or doubting, we made it through the wedding and it was a huge success...Landon did GREAT and mommy was able to fulfill her bridesmaid duties!!

We came home on Tuesday, April 17th. I think we were all thrilled to be home. Landon has been eating well and sleeping great too. We have gotten a few 4-4.5 hour spirts at night and eating about every 3 hours during the day.

On Wednesday we spent my birthday running errands. Landon had his first doctors appointment to check his bilirubin levels and make sure he wasn't going to need a blanket for jaundice. His levels were elevated, but they weren't too concerned, so we got to go back on Thursday. After our appointment on Wednesday I was feeling so well we decided to introduce Landon to our favorite places, Target and Menards! We also had to make a quick stop at Walgreens to get him some supplies for his circumcision. Wednesday night we took our first road trip to Des Moines so I could get my bridesmaid dress altered again. A huge Thanks to the secretary in my office who does alterations and was able to tuck and trim my dress!

Thursday led to another doctors appointment. Landon's levels dropped quite a bit so no blanket for us!! YEAH!! We also had to take a run to Wal-Mart to try to find the guy some pants. This lovely April weather has him a little confused. Somedays he is in just a onsie and the next, long sleeves and pants. We weren't too prepared for pants, and trying to find them this time of year has been a challenge. Thanks to Wal-Mart and cheap pants he now owns a couple pairs!!

Friday we picked up my bridesmaid dress and had rehearsal dinner. Landon did great and slept through the whole thing!

Saturday was the big day...Matt and Landon came to the salon in the morning while the girls got their hair done. They were both troopers through the entire day. After hair we went home to eat and get Landon ready for the wedding. We went back to the church for pictures and the wedding. There was about 20 minutes where Landon was a little frustrated and wanted to eat while I was getting pictures taken. He slept through the entire ceremony and then after eating slept through the reception as well!! We were able to make it until 8:45, so he partied hard!!

Sunday Grandma and Grandpa Heidesch came to spoil Landon and bring mommy and daddy a ton of food to help through the week. With Matt going back to work this week, it will come in handy to have food to pull from the freezer! Sunday night Louise, Abby, Dave, Heather, Mike and Ethan came over to visit. They brought pizza that was delicious. Ethan thought baby Landon was pretty cool and didn't really want to stop holding him once he got started. He liked holding his hands!

So that is our week in a nutshell, pretty eventful, but we had a great first week home and look forward to some relaxing days to come!! Below are some pictures of the week. Also I added a few pictures of the "almost" finished nursery. There are a couple of pictures from Pottery Barn where I got my inspiration and then my version. I gotta say I don't think Pottery Barn has anything on me :o)
