Project Improv

Well, I guess you can see by the button on the sidebar, that I joined Project Improv. It is being hosted by Jacquie of Tallgrass Prairie Studio. Being that I am, as I've previously mentioned, a procrastinator, I Decided to get my donation block done ASAP. I have to say, that for the last 6 months or so, I seem to have misplaced my quilting mojo. Making my block last night seems to have started my creative juices flowing. Now if I can get on top of my time management skills. Oh, and I will have to talk to the boy about being more self sufficient. ;0)

Mother's Day

Today I experienced my first Mother's Day. It started out without having to wake up for the boy all night...Not a Mother's Day miracle, but a miracle husband! Sleeping in until 7:30 was the first present. Then we got up, visited some of the other mothers in the family, and then it was present two...getting to go out with my mother sans the boy. As luck would have it, it seems like Father's Day came early too. The boy was an angel all day for my husband. Took a solid three hour nap until it was time to visit his grandmother and great grandmother. Then it was two hours of smiles and giggles for the onlookers. Not a typical day for me, but would I expect any different. And then the third present. Our first swim...Seems as though it is as we expected. The boy loved the pool! He even seemed to float all on his own as Daddy held on to his tiny little fists! Super cute and unforgettable! Can this kid get any more adorable?

The three month long blog....

In true first time mother fashion, it has taken almost three months to start the blog I have been talking about. After having my first baby, (see picture at top of page) a month early, lets just say that I was a little unprepared. As a matter of fact, I had him on the day that was marked for my baby shower. As this is my kind of luck, at least we delivered in a hospital that didn't mid a ton of visitors, since the shower was sort of impromptu and in my hospital room.
Since then, we have started to fall into a routine around the house. He seems to only have a cranky day every few days. Unfortunatly, I am the kind of person who likes to keep busy, and right now, that seems impossible since I am really just betting the bare essentials completed. The normal day consists of the following:

Wake up
Feed
Burp
Change
Bounce
Cry
Feed
Sleep
Repeat

Although, it all seems worth it for the half smile he is starting to make! Counting down the minutes for a giggle...
