Time Flies When You’re A New Mom
Jeezus, how long has it been since my last post?? I feel like I just crawled out of a black hole and found myself at the latter half of 2014.
BabyGirl is now a little over 6 months old. I can’t believe that. I can’t believe I just typed that out. Wasn’t I just puking my brains out from Hyperemesis? Didn’t I just have my PICC line taken out because it was infected? At some point, between then and now, I had a beautiful baby girl.
It’s true what they say. Time flies when you’re having fun.
So far, 6 months into my newest and most important job as Mommy, I’ve learned :
- They’re only this little once.
- They’ll never be this tiny again.
- I need a phone with the largest memory available because I’ve become THAT MOM who takes videos of her baby doing the same thing every day.
- I can deal with sleep deprivation because she’s so cute…and because I love her so much.
If you told me 10 years ago the most peace I’d ever have in my day is the moments I can take a shower, I would’ve told you you’re crazy. Even so, I drag BabyGirl’s Rock N Play into the bathroom so she can still see me as I shower. I’ve learned to take 5 minutes or less showers. I’ve also learned how to shovel food into my mouth with one hand and what foods are the most efficient to eat.
I love being a mom. ^_^
