1) Modern medicine to help me recover from my c-section - A.K.A. percocet and heavy doses of Ibuprofen
2) Mothers to do my dishes, laundry, and make us food.
3) A nipple shield to help me breastfeed. Sorry if it's TMI, but those who've had children will appreciate the struggle.
4) PediaLax to help Isla 'work it out', if you know what I mean.
5) A swing to keep her happy while I am happy doing other things.
6) Bart, for pretty much doing anything and everything I ask for.
Here's a pic of her doing her classic long leg stretch. (Oh yah, she totally did this in the womb like 85% of the day) Note the onesie my little brother made for her. It's freakin' awesome. Bovine is his 'brand' he and his friends made up. Oh to be 16 again.
