That old cliche about time flying really is true

I'm turning to dashes since I'm tired and lazy......
- Little girl is sleeping so great (knock on wood). i can't be more happy with her all night sleeps.

- She's begun to turn from back to tummy and will sometimes wake up to be rolled back over. I understand this is brief, soon she'll either be rolling back or happy to sleep on her tummy.

-I didn't think my house would become a Babies R Us but I was wrong. We have a swing and a jumperoo and I just bought a second-hand exersaucer. To be fair we do have three levels so maybe I can spread these things over different floors.

- Little girl loves laughing, making all kinds of noises, sucking on her fists, discovering her toes/feet, doing this funny noise w/ her lips, eating rice cereal and just being a happy, smiley, laughing little girl.

- Packing up things she's grown out of is the most difficult thing in the world. The 0-3 month drawer was JUST packed up and I totally almost cried.

-Zoloft is great. Being overly tired and having a difficult time trying to breastfeed the first few months just wore me out to no end. I gave in and called my midwife. Zoloft was the answer and I do not plan on letting go of it anytime soon.

-I spent too much time feeling guilty over not being able to breastfeed. I pumped for 2.5 months and then weaned off of that a few week before returning to work. I stressed out over formula when I shouldn't have. She got some breast milk and I am happy for that.

- At our mid-July appointment (a late 4 month well exam) she weighed 14 lbs 8 ozs

- I use pocket cloth diapers and think they are the best things in the world. It keeps her butt non-rashy and environmentally friendly!

- Lately, leaving her at daycare is DIFFICULT. Now that she is actually doing things I feel like I'm going to miss something. I think about her all day long and even look at photos.

-I never thought I would be so in love.

- Ok, yes I did. She is the best thing on earth and when I wash her with her method brand baby soap I just want to eat her up. OK, busted again, I want to eat her up ALL THE DARN TIME!

I could go on............and on............

It's time to put the diapers in the dryer!

I hope anyone that might still follow me has gotten their BFP! I still have many bookmarks that I go back and look at and think of many of you often.
