I can't believe it
This is my last day before I go back to work. I honestly thought that I would catch up on live journal while off on maternity leave. So much for that thought. =) I just never got around to checking it. I barely even checked my email while I was off.
I really really really don't want to go back to work. Partially because who really wants to go to work but mostly because I don't want to be away from Aubrie for 9 hours, 5 days a week. As for an update, things are great. I love being a Mom even though I have no idea what I am doing. Scott and I have done a lot of reading trying to figure out what we are doing. Lets see, major happenings..........the baby girl was 8 days old and I broke my pinky toe. Pinky toe much better now and yes for those of you who where there it is the same pinky toe I broke at the Buffett concert a few years ago. Aubrie's cord fell off at about midnight on a saturday night and we freaked out because her belly button looked raw and not even close to being healed. She is fine though and her belly button is fine, we just had no idea what we were doing. She went through a spell where she would cry in the evenings but it wasn't as bas as a lot of other babies I hear about so I am not going to complain. She is smiling now and not just because she has gas. It is the most awesome thing I have ever seen, I thought Scott was going to fall down the first time she really smiled it him. It honestly just melts your heart to have your child smile at you, I had no idea how amazing it would be. She hasn't had a tear roll down her cheek yet but it could happen at any time. Her eyes get all watery when she cries now so it will be any day now. We are not looking forward to seeing that. All in all, they say you have no idea how much you can love someone until you have a child, well they are right. I have never felt a love like this in my entire life and I try to thank Scott as much as I can for helping me have her.
