What a morning...

This morning was one of those "welcome to motherhood" mornings. So for laughs (as I am out of it.... and for later) I though I would share. I woke up to discover I had leaked milk all over Em and the bed. Awesome #1. She was all smiles which made me happy. Then I discovered how ridiculously wet she was. Awesome #2, so I changed her diaper. Five minutes later I heard the grunting... someone was filling her diaper. Awesome #3. As I walked downstairs to where the cloth diapers are she started spitting up. Awesome #4. It landed all over the stairs and me, so I grabbed a burp cloth and started wiping up what I could find. I laid her down to change her and started cleaning up a mess of a diaper. Mid changing poop shot out (yes shot), I was so glad I had a wipe or else it would have been everywhere.... Awesome #5. I finished cleaning her and got her dressed. The outfit was HORRID. I am so glad I didn't take the tags off, Awesome #6. I took it off and discovered I really had jumped the gun on the diaper change because she had already pooped in her cloth diaper, Awesome #7. I changed her and I walked back upstairs to get a different outfit. I got back down and discovered our wood drying rack left a yellow line across her onesie Awesome #8. So back upstairs to get something for her to wear. I got back downstairs and got her dressed for her to start fussing. I tried to nurse her and she did for 5 minutes before she was done and angry. So the pacifier went in and my hand on her cheek. Within 5 minutes she was asleep.... That 45 minute start to our morning wore her out too. Hence I sit here blogging about it in my underwear as I have had 6 oreos (mint I might add) and a glass of water for breakfast.... Oh and Jared doesn't get home until 5 today....

I love being a mom and I love this girl. This was my official welcome to motherhood since I have had it sooo easy. I am glad that I have such a good baby. :)




 This is Lovee her lion. (Jared named it.... it stuck)


She rolled over for the first time on Saturday


 Eating your hand is always a good thing.
 Oh and ice cream for the mom at 2 is always a good thing too.




(7.5 hours later)

Jared got home early!  It is raining! I got to work out (even if after 15 minutes of Zumba my rear was kicked). I think Emery is sick (again.... or still). But Life is still good. I still love being a mom and I know I will be ready for my bed tonight!

Enjoy the Journey.
