Some thoughts from Mommy....

Since Bryan usually is the only one who updates the blog, I thought I would make an attempt at joining in on the fun of blogging. Our life has changed a lot over the past 2 months, and I thought I would share in some of the realizations I've had on the adjustment to motherhood.

You know you're a new mom when....

1. You go grocery shopping at 6 am when Daddy and Baby are still sleeping and WalMart is not as crazy ..... you can take your time and use coupons......exciting!
2. Daddy is watching the baby so you can run to a doctor's appointment.....you realize you're desperate for a haircut.... on a whim you go to Borics...ahh!
3. It's 2 pm and you're still in your pajamas...
4. It's 5 pm and you're still in your pajamas...
5. Oh wait....you're in your pajamas all day...
6. An exciting day out is going to Panera and Babies R Us.
7. You schedule everything around when baby eats and sleeps.
8. You cheer and get excited over baby's bowl movements and burps.....
9. You make up new songs and dances so baby will stop crying...
10. When changing Baby at Panera you forget to be careful and you get peed on....it sprays up over the changing table, onto the floor, onto your sweater, and in your hair! You scream because of shock....and realize there are 2 other people in the bathroom hearing it all!

I'm sure I'll have more moments in the weeks to come....I'll update later........ :)

Emily,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on being a mommy! I can relate to all but the peeing one...although Kate had many many dirty diapers that managed to get all over herself and me!! Too bad you forget to pack a change of clothes for yourself as well! Hope you all are doing well! We miss you! Kate says hi to Nolan! Take care, The Briscoes
