So thankful to have such helpful, loving parents to spend these 1st several months of mommyhood with. They left their lives in California back in late May, drove across the country and rented an apartment 2 miles from our house in North Carolina. They've helped to make this transition into parenthood much easier for Bryan and I than it could have been. My mom and dad insist on babysitting so that we can go out on dates, run errands and spend time together. They change diapers, give baths, rock to sleep, help feed and snuggle with Trace every time they see him. They've kept me sane by providing me with constant socialization, many laughs, great homemade meals and an endless amount of wine. Bryan, Trace and I are so lucky that we still have 1 more month with them out here... and that they'll be back for at least 5 weeks this fall!
So sweet! And so wonderful your parents are able to spend this time with you guys - I'm sure they are loving it!
