First day on my own 😱

I’m 8 days postpartum, I have an 8 day old little girl and my oldest little girl turns two in two weeks. My husband went on a fishing trip today (9 am-11 pm) and I was SO nervous to be on my own with both of my girls. My toddler is very clingy and I exclusively pump so between pumping and feeding, it can get busy. If I do say so myself, I frickin crushed this day! 🥰 I even got my toddler to nap, stayed on my pumping schedule, cleaned the living room and kitchen, and snuggled both of my girls as often as possible. Just a proud Mommy moment when I was so anxious about how today would play out. My husband and I get 4 months off work together so we’ve been doing everything as a team the last week, I wasn’t sure how things would go by myself but I’m super proud.

As a side note, my husband couldn’t even manage to send one text to check on us throughout the day. I’d give him the benefit of the doubt and say he didn’t have service on the water but, he was able to post multiple times on Facebook so, not the case lol. I thought he’d at least send a text or two to see how we were making out with him being gone for over 14 hours. I can’t tell if I’m just hormonal or if it’s appropriate that my feelings are a little hurt. If the roles were reversed, I would have been able to spare a few seconds to make sure everyone was okay.

Anyways, here are my snuggly girls on this otherwise awesome day. 🥰
