Three Weeks Left

We are finally in the home stretch here. Only a couple more weeks and Baby Violet arrives! I've just completed the birth plan and we are looking forward to delivering at East Side Birth Center. This is the most amazing time in our lives, and we are so blessed by all the support we've had throughout this pregnancy. Violet will be born into a world of love and we are so grateful!

Approaching 2

    This girl is amazing. I am so thankful every day I wake up and see her beautiful face. Violet is full of joy, humor, and love. She knows what she wants and knows how to ask for it, most of the time in a very polite manner. I don't know what I did to deserve such a perfect daughter. Somebody's smiling down on me that's for sure. Obviously, it goes without saying that her family and friends have been so supportive and loving and kind to my Violet. She is truly a very lucky little girl and I am lucky to be her mom.   Where does the time go? It was just yesterday I was sitting nursing her, well, actually it was this morning...but you get what I'm saying. Where does the time go? They are so tiny and yet so full of life when they are born. From the time they first open their eyes and sneeze to when they beging holding their heads up and laughing for the first time, to sitting up and crawling. The way they try so hard to go, move, explore, live. Every day more ...

Long Winded

Hi, so my husband asked me, "who's reading this blog?" He says my posts are too long. If so, let me know, I can cut them down. Its just that I don't get a lot of down time to post multiple shorter posts. Maybe I'll add that to my New Year's Resolution! ;) Update on this... As I grow as a blogger I'm learning more and more and trusting my instincts. Its a process, so what if the first one didn't work out, I'm enjoying the journey!

Lean On Your Friends and Family

I can't begin to tell you how amazing and comforting it is to have people you trust look after your little one!! Grandparents are in general safer drivers, more attentive, almost to the point of overstimulating, but always aware more than most parents!! So lean on them when you can. The relationship they build with your baby/child is irreplaceable! And if a friend offers to watch your little shnookums, drop her off every once and a while and do something nice for yourself, like a hair cut, massage, or even a nap! And finally, did you know that there are great, affordable daycares at gyms!! Gold's has a saline pool, family swim times, a cardio theater, and steam room and sauna!! The teachers at the kids klub there are great, use them!! They are a god send! Hope you're enjoying the sunshine today!! And thank you to everyone who's been there for us!! We're here for you too!
