Sleep? WTF is that?

Aug 09, 2007 18:37

Well, the bean sprout is almost 3 weeks old and I think I have forgotten what sleep is. I have learned a lot over the past 3 weeks but there is still much more to learn. Lucky thing for me my mom is a great teacher that has been passing on information daily. I have learned some good tricks that help with Romie's crabby times. Which are by far the hardest thing to deal with. You can go crazy trying to figure out why a baby is just screaming for no apparent reason. She has been fed, changed, burped and everything in between and still she screams. Being a parent makes you feel helpless a lot! I don't think I was prepared for that.

Aside from learning how to be a parent I have been busy trying to get what few things I can do at home done. Iris and I have been trying to fix up the house. We recently bought all new living room furniture and yesterday we bought a new dishwasher. It is the small things that come together to make a house a home. Jesus do I sound domestic or what? Who would have thought?!?!

I really miss work. I look forward to returning but I can see why they say it will be hard to leave the baby. It is hard to turn over the most important thing you have to someone else to care for. I'm sure that it will be a challenge but isn't that what life is about? Besides I have to go and make the bacon so I can afford my lil ones college education!
