Baby problems
What do you do if the book you want to read just happens to be unavailable because you're sitting on it??

why laundry is forever
You know you're a mama if you have a pile of laundry waiting to be folded (for a week) because the mere sound of laundry getting folded and taken care of wakes up a sleeping baby :)
[for all you not-yet-mamas, babies have supersonic hearing and extra sensitive vision, and can hear and see things that you didn't even notice!]

Penny puffs
After attempting to paint my nails one evening, I decided to give Cora a makeover .... What kid doesn't love a mustache accompanied by snuggles with mama? We gave her a beard, a wig, and a few different kinds of mustache. She looked like Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, and Kenny Rogers, to name a few.

Two months! :)
Introducing Cora Elaine, our little snuggle bear! Today at her two month checkup she was 11 pounds, up from 7 pounds 15 oz. at her birth.
(she was born via C-section after about 24 hours of Foley bulb and Pitocin and no progress past 5cm). She's a breastfeeding champ, and usually finishes her meals in ten minutes or less.
We absolutely love her, and she was the best surprise ever after thinking she was a boy for most of the pregnancy (we were team green, and what baby clothes we had were either from cousin Rafe or gender neutral... But several friends and family members gave us tons of girly clothes so we are pretty much set through six months (she's in 3-6 months now, and we've been taking advantage of thrift stores for deals on bigger sizes for the future. She found her thumb yesterday, and enjoys trying to put it in her mouth, but usually ends up gnawing on her hand. :p its kinda hard to remember what it was like with just the hubby and myself, but i absolutely love being a mama, and i know daddy feels the same about being this little girl's daddy. Its kinda scary knowing that God's trusting us to raise her for Him to the best of our abilities, and I'm sure we'll make mistakes, but I'm glad He's there to guide us through it all!!
