So much gorgeous!
I’m relieved other people think so because sometimes you wonder if you just have mom-eyes for your baby.

Thank you! I happen to agree.

Bon Iver: And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine. I told you to be balanced, and I told you to be kind, but now all your love is wasted. And then who the hell was I?
Death Cab: So one last touch and then you'll go and we'll pretend that it meant something so much more. But it was vile, and it was cheap and you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me. Yeah, you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
Radiohead: But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling if I just turn and run. And it wears me out... It wears me out. If I could be who you wanted, if I could be who you wanted all the time... all the time.
Brand New: You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold. Pale white like the skin stretched over your bones, spring keeps you ever close. You are secondhand smoke, you are so fragile and thin standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain, you are the blood in my veins.
Nicki Minaj: You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, you a you a stupid hoe. You a stupid hoe, yeah you a you a stupid hoe.You a stupid hoe you a you a stupid hoe. You stupid stupid, you a stupid hoe

I will do ALL THE SIT UPS! while crying to an episode of The Wonder Years… Then I took a nice walk around the block with Salinger, who is looking quite dashing after his grooming this afternoon. I really need to work on this “sleep while the baby is sleeping” thing so I’m not constantly in zombie-mode.

I love this post! I had a similar thought today while picking up our toy saturated living room. If someone had shown me this scene from my life a couple of years ago, I would have slapped them. Now…all I have is love for my messy life.
I love this.

Apparently a nice bath will soothe a fussy newborn… or at least tire them out to the point where they sleep.
I was remarking the other day that, if someone told me a year ago that I was going to be awake at 3am, pumping breast milk while watching The Wonder Years on Netflix, with my daughter propped up in a boppy beside me, I would have died laughing. I wouldn’t have believed it. I...

LORD HELP ME
The last three days have been absolute HELL. I don’t know what is wrong with this girl. Her temperature is fine. She’s well-fed, diaper is clean, girl is burped, all is well in paradise… but she’s inconsolable. She screams and cries. She eats and then screams, eats and screams- constantly unlatching and relatching. I was worried she wasn’t getting enough milk...

Salinger chewed up the only pair of high heels that I own. They were bright red stilettos and I think I’ve worn them twice. One step closer to a “lazy mom” wardrobe.

Chris visited this weekend. One day, in the middle of the afternoon, he says, “Hey, remember last night when I found some of Riley’s poop in my mouth?” I replied, “No.” He says, “Oh… I guess it was a dream.”
