Lessons Learned

So I've learned some things about myself through pregnancy and the early stages of motherhood.

- I'm terrible at blogging now that things WORTH blogging about are happening... instead I am drinking it all in... the midnight feedings, the dirty diapers, the 3 am "I'm in labor WAKE UP!!!!" calls, the constant stream of family and friends in and out of my house...

-My hubby is an even better DADDY than he is husband.  This is the man who dealt with me through a rough pregnancy where I never felt good or had ANY energy...did all the grocery shopping, calmed me down when I was FREAKING out... basically he's an amazing husband. But he's an even better Daddy. And nothing has brought me more joy in the last 3 (3 already???? SERIOUSLY???!!!)) weeks than watching him get to know our baby girl. Oh how he loves her. Most commonly heard phrase from my husband these days, "That (whatever baby girl is doing) is the cutest thing ever!" She is so lucky to have a Daddy that loves her so much. I know this--- because I had a Daddy that awesome, too.

-I'm sorry I always rolled my eyes at stay at home moms.... because now I want to be a stay at home mom, too! I can't even think about going back to work and leaving my baby girl at home without getting teary :(

-Without my mom, MIL, and hubby I probably wouldn't have survived the last 3 weeks. 

- I can no longer make a decision for myself. Planning a menu for the week or making a grocery list are ridiculously difficult these days!

...And many more things... that I'll have to get to later because my Princess is calling....
