I was thinking today about the ways in which my life has changed since Carson arrived. There are the obvious ones that I was told to expect, and some I found kind of funny and would not have predicted.
- I am not well rested, see my lovely under eye circles?
- My hair is almost always a mess
- I wear pajamas most of the day
- Wearing real clothes and doing my hair makes me incredibly happy
- My falsetto voice is getting more use
- I say the most ridiculous things to get a smile from Carson
- I get super excited about big hunks of snot I pull from his nose
- I have to plan ahead for all my meals
- I almost never get to eat when I am hungry
- I make up songs and sing them while dancing around the house with Carson
- Sometimes at night I think I hear him crying, but he’s fast asleep…is that normal?
- I never watch anything in one sitting. I am currently watching a movie that has taken me 3 days to finish. Thanks DVR!
- Any outing takes a lot of preparation
- I am learning to get through the grocery store very quickly…I used to be a browser
- I’d rather wash dishes after dinner than be on baby duty
- Going to bed at 8 is not all that crazy
- Dinner “out” means we pick it up and bring it home
- I love this little boy more than I thought possible…even though he did this to my couch cushions
This post makes me so happy. I always felt like it was a great day if I got my teeth brushed before 3 in the afternoon.
WOW LOOKS LIKE IVE GOT ALOT OF THINGS THAT I NEED TO LEARN
Was this the day you wanted to make the dinner rolls? :) I always think I hear Maddie crying while I’m in the shower, but she rarely is. I think it’s normal.
This all sounds so familiar!
