Smiles...

These make every day the best day of my life!

Finally!

Ok, so I know I have been really bad at blogging...that is what happens when you become a mom! I always say that every single time she falls asleep, I have a choice of about 50 things I could do. I guess blogging usually is at the bottom of that list. Gracelyn is a doll...loves to smile, coo, tummy time, and her baths... Lately when we know she is getting tired we just wrap her up in a blanket and put her nuk in and she is out like a light. We are so lucky!

I have a love/hate relationship with nursing. I love how good it is for her and I love extra bonding time that we enjoy. However, I hate nursing in public - hate it! I also don't like leaking all over the place...but we continue for now...

I have started back at work part time which has been bittersweet. I would love to stay home with Gracelyn, but financially it is not possible. I like to shop for cute clothes for her as well and without a job it would be hard for me to do that as often as I do! Right now my mom is taking care of her and she will go to day care full time in September. I am soooo grateful for my mom's help, she has been a God's sent. It is easier to leave her with my mom during this transition. She has done tons of extra stuff - laundry, weeding, dishes, etc. the list goes on. I keep saying that those are all the things I will do for Gracelyn when she is in need of my services! I am also very thankful for my mother-in-law for allowing me to go back to work part-time at first! It makes it easier to go to work when you know you can be at home with your baby the next day!

So I suppose I will get to the best part...new pictures!
