Long Time No Blog

I haven't blogged in a long time. I guess I just haven't had time since I've been adjusting to being a new mom. It's been so fun! And the older she gets, the more personality I can see and I just love it. Here are a couple things I have realized with being a mom:

1. Human babies are TOTALLY dependant on you! No other mammal is like that

2. She is her own special spirit- I am getting to learn who she is individually

3. I couldn't be a single mom. Nick is a huge help

4. Even babies want a snack between meals sometimes.

5. Starting to average 7 hours of sleep a night means happier baby. (she likes routine)

6. 7 hours of sleep still doesn't equal 7 hours for mom...must pump to survive

7. I'm so creative and detail oriented with how to cure a diaper rash. (she LOVES diaper changes)

8. Seeing her smile and learn to laugh is making it all worth it

9. I need to stop spending so much $ on her clothes when she'll outgrow them next month

10. I've learned she needs baby time, and I need mom time and we both need together time :)
