Yes, it definitely is tiring looking after her, with all the night feeds and diaper changes, making sure her every need is met......yet, every time she smiles at us, or even looks into our eyes as we talk to her, it makes everything worthwhile.....
Many a time in the span of this week, i've doubted my ability to take care of her.....i definitely am able to take care of her needs, but i don't think i'll ever be a playmate to her......darling is the one that's constantly playing with her, talking to her....so much so that by the end of the first week, she was reacting to his voice each time he spoke.....on the other hand, i'm the feeding and cleaning machine for her....=) as always, we work well together, and it's when we are together that we do things best....not that we can't look after her alone...just that we're more effective together..... =D
Baby Faith is changing day by day.... and every single time she looks into our eyes and smiles, even if it's only for that second, it just makes everything else fade away into the background and seem so insignificant.
I'd always questioned how our little family unit would be like post-birth..... whether we were ready for it, how our lives would change and all... and I was so worried.... but it seems our priorities have all been changed now that Baby Faith is in our lives. She is the centre of our lives... can't imagine a day without her right now.... =)
Of course, we do miss having a good night's sleep... one that is uninterrupted!! And we do miss unfrazzled evenings, watching the tv and all, doing our own things, having alone time once in a while.... But it's okay..... it's part of the package now that we have a child.... and I can't see us doing anything without Faith around... Our lives have changed, and so have our love for one another. It has reached a whole new level, a different stage in our relationship... I guess Darling watching me go through so much pain and me seeing how much Darling sacrificed for Faith and me has made us see each other in a whole new light.... and that has caused our relationship to further mature.... =)
Faith has learnt to lift up her head when she's on her tummy, albeit for a little while, and well, she's learning to enjoy her bath time! Here are more pictures for you to enjoy!!!

Life is Beautiful
I love you not only for what you are
but for what you make of me.
