Thank you for all the birthday wishes for my sweet little one. I hope to respond to everyone soon. I need to share more pictures of my almost toddler. I truly can't believe how big she has gotten. She had her official 1 month weigh in and is 16 1/2 lbs and 28 1/4 inches. To put that in proper perspective, that makes her bottom 25% for height ( Read more... )

I was at the Birthing Center resting with my newborn daughter snuggled against me. Thank you so much for being a part of my life, my darling little one. I know most of you out in LJland don't want a baby, but I am very grateful I get to share my life with this one ( Read more... )

It's not super exciting work, but it is something. I've made ( Read more... )

Yesterday we left 3.5 ozs of milk out too long and it had to be tossed. It was easy for my husband to get rid of it, saying I am making more than enough for the baby, but it is much harder for me since that represents being hooked up to a pump for like 15-20 minutes. My new pump is a lot better than the old one, but pumping is just not fun. At ( Read more... )

I wanted to make a happy post about my baby. How she is sleeping well, babbling more and starting the process of being able to sit up alone. All these things are exciting and happy. I've started going out more and taking her to Mommy and Baby things so that I'm meeting more moms. And if we ever move and I can make my home look presentable I can ( Read more... )
