My life as a mom exists in snippets. In between feedings and naps I desperately try to accomplish such feats as use the bathroom, do some laundry, scarf down something to eat, feed the dogs, run to the post office and check mail. Sometimes at the same time. So, some things (such as blogging and emailing) get pushed to the side. I think of myself as an excellent multi-tasker, but my abilities are being tested. I imagine as time goes on, I will get better at this or make an adjustment? Wonder if I could convince my cousin Alison to come and live with us to help me during the day. With minimal direction she can find just about anything in the house I would need - we would make a great team while Matt is at work. Unfortunately, she’s married to a great guy named Chris, who probably wants her to live with him, so unless I can clone her, I might have to do without. Fortunately, I know some supermoms out there who give me hope.
Having said that, Haven is six weeks today and it seems to be we are somewhat over all the humps. Actually, I was the one with all the humps, she’s been on cruise control since birth. But, we are moving along.
I just wanted to let you all know that everything is fine (thanks for all the emails!). We are enjoying our baby girl and bear with us for a while as we adjust to this new life we lead!
