Rewind: Chloe's Birthday!

Chloe turned 3 months old a few days ago. 3 months!! I guess I can see how that much time has gone by already, but motherhood still feels really fresh to me. I'm a little behind on blogging her progress, so here's a few snap shots of her first day with us.

...this is a pic of me and Sam after the epidural, when I was able to curve a half smile.

More recent pics to come!

Squishy Face

Lately Chloe likes to cradle her head in the crook of my neck. She'll squish her little chubby cheeks right next to mine...and I love it.

Cloth Diapers...

We recently changed to cloth diapers. It was our plan all along. They are better on the environment, but our real motivation is they are just cheaper and we're on a budget. We were given quite a few disposable diapers as gifts when Chloe was born and are just now breaking into our stash of cloth provided by Sam's fantastic Mama.

Chloe wasn't too impressed with my first attempt...




We could use a little practice....

Late Nights and New Beginnings...

Writing this first post feels a lot like the first page in one of my journals...an awkward self introduction for an audience that already knows me or knows enough about me that the usual formality is unnecessary. So this first post, like most of my new beginnings will be a little awkward...

I haven't been sleeping lately. Mostly because we brought little Chloe home to live with us. She slept all through the night the first day we brought her home from the hospital. In fact, she slept soundly the whole first week. Right up until I stopped taking the high dose pain meds the doctor prescribed...who knew?

Ever since we've become two late night ladies; and for some reason I am starting a blog at 4 in the morning. Its seems only right that late night blogging would accompany motherhood...so here goes!
