I'm pretty sure we have the easiest baby there ever was. I sometimes forget how easy it has been adjusting to parenthood with such an easy going bundle of joy. Lilly has been sleeping 12 hours through the night since she was 13 weeks old, but if we need to keep her out late, she's perfect. She only cries when she bumps her head on something or isn't feeling well. Lilly has the most contagious smile. She loves Tyler and I, but never puts up a fuss to go spend time with anyone, so far she hasn't met a stranger. We started BSF a few weeks back and every week when I go pick Lilly up from the nursery (6-12 months) her teachers want to know if Lilly has siblings. There is no way an only child can be content just sitting on the floor for two hours?? Today when I went to pick her up she was sitting on the blanket playing with a ball and a toy, apparently how she had been the entire lesson. Per usual I get the same comments/questions: is she the only child, is she always so content, she is so happy if you just sit her down and let her play, you should have another! I love my happy baby! My only concern is that she could potentially get less attention in situations, because it's easy to forget about her when she is much less "needy" than other children, but hey that's what I'm here for...to give her my undivided attention. That's the wonderful thing about having an only child, at least for now.
Update:
I am no longer doing the couch to 5K. After completing 6 weeks my knees were giving me a lot of problems. The OHOH 5K was canceled in September. I am now back to doing group fitness to try and tone up this postpartum body. I am back down to 115 pounds (wasn't sure how long that would take seeing I ended up at 160), only 10 more to go to be back to my pre pregnancy weight. I can wear my size 0 (NEVER thought I would be in those again), pre pregnancy, clothes again! I can't imagine as long as I'm nursing that I will lose much of the last 10 pounds, but who knows.
My goal this week has been to be intentional about planning my weeks. Each week I wish to include: BSF, grocery shopping, exercise, story time at the library, a play date and of course the usual list of chores. Organization has never been a strong suit for me, so learning how to be a SAHM and be productive is proving to be most difficult. Thankfully my husband shows me A LOT of grace!!
Told you guys this was a brag post. :)
