“If my love had healing powers, you would never hurt again”
– I said this to my son who was screaming because his tummy hurt. It breaks my heart to see him in pain!

Sleep
This is the first night that we are trying a new sleep schedule. I thought it would be harder than this. So far we were putting him to bed when we went to bed so we could sleep more.. I figure now that he is quickly approaching three months it’s time for him to have a little boy bed time. Today I tried to not let him sleep more than normal and we put him down at 9pm after a bath, bottle and...
Jeans
Everytime I put Jake in jeans he gives me this, ” you have got to be kidding me woman!”, look. I feel bad but he looks so cute! He must be like his mama. As a true child of the 80’s I refused to wear jeans until I was 10! I sported leggings with t-shirts that were much too long and pulled to the side with a scrunchie!! A trend that is slowly resurfacing again sans scrunchie! Lord...
Shots
My baby had his first shots today. He did so well! Just big screams with each injection and then was fine. I held it together too, I thought I would cry for sure!
“I’m wearing real people clothes”
– I said this to my mom, declaring that I was wearing pre-pregnancy jeans! It’s only been 10 weeks haha! I could have fit into them sooner but to save my self-confience I waited til now. And let’s not forget I gave birth to a giant (9lb. 13oz.)!!!
I love Saturdays!
What a delightful morning! Jake slep for 7 hours then woke up ate and went right back to sleep between mommy and daddy! I love looking over to see both my boys in bed! Before he was born I was against him sleeping in our bed. It still doesn’t happen a lot but I like when does!
I was feeding Jake and he was staring at me all cute with his deep blue eyes. He smiled at me and milk dribbled down his chin. Then he started “talking” to me with a mouth full of bottle. I just love that he is starting to communicate. I wonder what he thought was so important that he interrupted his sacred meal time? It was the cutest thing I have ever seen, then again I say that...
Today I got a phone call from Ashford University.
A while back I was feeling self-conscious about not completing my degree and looked into finishing it on line. I must have requested info, I don’t remember doing that but some how they got my phone number and I got a call.
The guy I was talking to was WAY too eager to get me to attend this school. Even after I told him I had a baby 2 months...
When my little one falls asleep in my arms it feels as though he has given me the most prescious gift. The trust he has bestowed in me melts my heart. There is no greater feeling in the world than recieving the love of an infant. I will miss these times greatly as he grows and no longer wants to cuddle but I will hold this moment in my heart forever.
“Each moment we have it all, even when we think we don’t” -Melody...”
– I need to remember this more. When I’m exhausted and wondering if I’ll ever get a full nights sleep again. I have all I could ever need right here in this moment.
Communication
my husband and I were driving in the car having a circular conversation when I tell him, I don’t think were communicating very well. He then proceeds to tell me how he thinks we are great communicators and in our two years of marriage have argued very little. I start to laugh. I never ment that we were always bad communicators just at that moment in time we were missing eachother. My point...
