Woo!!

So with having a colicy baby, you know they like never fall asleep or stop crying. YAY!! Not. Good news is that he is sleeping better at night! But omg, I had to share with you a trick that helped me!!! Seriously, I just put him in his stroller and rolled him back and forth. BOOM! Asleep :] I feel so much better! And I bet he does as well <3

Oh! We got the Jeep Overland Jogging stroller in fierce! I love it so much! It has an Ipod hook up so it can play lullaby's or whatever music you want, a giant basket, 3 cup holders, a bike brake, etc. You should check it out because it has this moms stamp of approval!

This is the stroller and I love it!!!

Learning to be ok with not being in control.

Seriously.

I cannot for the life of me do this. It's actually really frustrating. For me- its more about having the house clean. I swear I'm boarder line OCD about it lol!! But as we all know with a baby- its hard to get everything clean. Even when I'm in so much pain, I shuffle out to the kitchen and do a load of dishes :/ I haven't let myself heal from the pregnancy/birth.

So! Starting today, I am going to teach myself how to breathe. To be a little more loosey goosey!! Because I cant keep doing this. I'm not letting myself heal and I think the dishes in the sink are ok to be there for one more day :] Its going to be hard, but I know I can do it. My health means wayyyyyy more than a pile of laundry.

Cheers to me, ladies! Because I'm worth it!

Ew.

Adult time outs!

Man, I can't stress enough how much they help me when our son wont stop screaming! Whenever I feel like I'm at wits end, I hand him off to the hubbs and go hang outside for a little bit. Seriously- it's SUCH a reliever! It makes me think clearly again and able to make good decisions.

Whats funnier is when I was in the hospital (Which is one of the states top hospitals) literally, 6 nurses and 1 midwife told me not to shake the baby if were stressed. WTF????? They finally stopped when I told them I wasn't stupid and not to tell me that anymore. Like who would do that? Well, apparently a lot of people considering how many times it was said to me. And what's even weirder like this has happened to every one I know! Is it like a mandatory thing? I have no idea. At one point I was like, "Fucker, I'm a RN. I know what the hell I'm doing." Anywho.

Ladies- there's nothing wrong at all about taking breathers. Yes, I know my blog states that I'm a supermom but of course, I'm far from it :] Just remember that you are important too <3

We all need one!

Not making any resolutions this year! But I will make a promise to my son :] Mommy promises to love you and be there for you through thick and thin. You can always come to me when your older and ask me questions and I will never judge. You are my life and I will do anything in my power to help you grow into an amazing person I know you can be. I love you little bunny, always and forever ♥

 Unconditional love!

SO MUCH TO TELL YOU

Omg.

So our little one is over a month old now and let me tell you it has been crazy!!!! In both good and bad LOL!

I swear we have a genius baby because he has been able to hold his head up since birth, already holds his bottle when he is being fed, can half crawl, coherently laugh/smile and can roll over by himself! Man, he amazes me everyday! He's so advanced!

Xmas was awesome! My mom and Aunt came up before and we had such nice time! We don't live in the same start so I don't get to see them very often, so I cherish the time we spend together!

Our son seems to have colic :/ NO FLIPPIN BUENO. It freakin sucks because I feel so helpless! And I cant help him really :[ What I found to really help is the Timmy Toppee (Spelling?) bottles, using gentle formula and help him fart after each feeding. So far we've seen a big improvement!!

Hes crying so I got to go!

Love you all!!!

 WOO!!

Finally a mom :]

Sorry I've been gone for so long, parenting is crazy! But I love it :] Nothing is more rewarding to me! So, our little son came into this word on November 18th, 2012 at 10:22 PM. He weighed 6 pounds 7 ounces and 19 inches long. Hes absolutely adorable and perfect in every way!

I have to say parenting is amazing. Hard, but amazing! All the sleepless nights and being pooped on, its all worth it! He makes the most cute faces as well. He sassy, just like his mommy!

You know whats crazy though? He can lift up his head! He is a strong boy! What can I say though- his daddy was a linebacker in hs :] AND I made him laugh and smile by singing Jingle Bells in a silly voice! Seriously, our child will be a genius! I didn't even know they could do that at 3 weeks old!! It was a legit laugh too! God, I love him!

So, were a little family now and I wouldn't change a thing! I have to thank my SO too because he has been amazing! I didn't even have to nag him to change a poopy diaper! Hes a keeper for sure :] And hes such a great helper. Whatever I need done, he does it! I don't know what I would do with out him <3 Hes my rock!

I will post a birth story if anyone wants to know it!

I'm in utter bliss!
