No, I can't make it to the party; I just had a baby.
You need a liver and I'm a match? No, I just had a baby.
This isn't my ice cream birthday cake, and I shouldn't be eating it? I'm sorry, but I just had a baby.
There hasn't been a new blog post for about 55 days. Forgive me! I just had a baby.
Here are the things we have managed to do in the last eight weeks:
- I started a wedding and event planning business. Have you heard of Simply Unique LLC? No? Wow...I thought my six total followers on Twitter would have gotten the word out by now.
- Billy graduated from college!
- I'm working on getting my real estate license through the online course.
- Installed an electric in-ground dog fence.
- Made and eaten four batches of puppy chow.
- Purchased a freezer and filled it with frozen bags of breastmilk. Mine. Not Billy's.
- Broke the washing machine...got the washing machine fixed...
- Got through our first family cycle of sickness. Joey catches a cold, sends it over to dad, who passes it down the court to mom for a chance at the game-winning layup.
- Joey has been to one waterpark, one soccer game, two track meets, two campground visits, one retirement party, and zero bars.
- We've (I say we because breastfeeding in public takes a team) successfully fed our baby in three different vehicles, two restaurants, and on the backstretch of a track while the 100/110 hurdle races were going.
There are many more things that should be included on this list, but my baby is in the other room and I miss her sweet smile. Also, her last fart shook the house walls, and I'm mentally preparing for an up-the-back-clothes-changing poop package.
