My little girl turned 2 months yesterday! 🙂 She has become a master at turning her head completely from side to side during tummy time, she makes adorable cooing noises, and she's been sleeping for longer stretches at night. As for me, the PPD seems to be getting easier with the medication. I'm on the … Continue reading 2 Months!
First Week Down
First week of stay at home mom life was a success! I only took Lilly on a walk once, but I also took her to my 6 week OB appointment, so she went for a walk and a drive. I found out that I'm pretty good at keeping Lilly quiet in waiting rooms! I keep … Continue reading First Week Down

Postpartum Weirdness
So, I'm almost 3 weeks postpartum now and, honestly, I've been struggling. I think I've cried more in the last few weeks than I did while I was pregnant.

It's … Continue reading First Week Home
