How time flies!

Someday, I'll blink my eyes and my little man will be going off to University or College!

Everybody needs to have a bathtub picture when they are a baby. This is one of the few times Aaron hasn't screamed his head off in the bathtub. It's a miracle we even got this picture!

This week's mommy lesson

When baby has been napping for an extended period, go have a quick shower. And I emphasize quick, because your LO will know the instant you step in the shower and start crying. It's the murphy's law of motherhood.

Showering in under 5 minutes is a special talent that only new mothers possess.

Mommy lessons of the week

Being a newb to the mommy club, I'm learning things on a daily basis.

Here is what I have learned this week (usually the hard way).
~it's time to go up to the next size of diapers when A pees through 4 sleepers over the course of a night and/or has near major poop leakage out the sides
~I never thought I'd be the kind of mom to count down until the husband gets home, but a couple of days alone already and I am that mom
~gripe water is the bomb
