You Know?!

Ya know, it would be nice if once you became a parent, sleep was no longer necessary.  You could just go and go and not even have to worry about it.  Get the laundry done , dinner cooked, get showered, dressed, and made up, clean the living room, bathrooms, and kitchen, scrapbook, and make thank you cards while the baby sleeps.  INSTEAD, you gotta sleep when she sleeps and you're lucky if you get to shower let alone make those thank you cards.
I'm not trying to whine.  I lover her with all my ability.  BUT, if I didn't have to sleep, my house would look a lot better, I wouldn't stink*, and those cards would have gone out the week she was born.




*I stink because for the past two weeks, I couldn't wear deodorant because I had a rash in my pits and had to put two different creams on them 3X's a day.  Now, I think the rash is gone but now they are really dry and the skin around my nail on my middle finger is infected or its an ingrown hangnail (i don't think it is related to the rash).


**BTW, I am posting this at 4 a.m. while typing with my left hand and rocking her to sleep.  Now that she is asleep, I gotta go.

More pictures and the stories that go with them

This is a picture of my foot.  Why a picture of my foot on my blog... I hate feet... why would I do that?? Well see that indent?  My feet got so swollen while I was pregnant.  When they would "unswell" I would think that they were back to normal but my idea of normal got kind of skewed and now they look super skinny and cute (now that I really am back to normal)
I was miserable just before having her.  This was one of my many trips to the triage room to see if they would admit me..  They just kept saying no and giving me Demerol.... Maybe that is why toward the end of the birth story everything was melting together.

Just chillin like a villain.

Sometimes I have to wake her up to feed her and she looks like this because I slowly wake her
and then GoodLooking takes over and she looks like this
and this
 And well.... She makes us laugh a lot.
