It's official...I've entered motherhood!
Today was one of my first days alone with Eleanor. Michael was at school and my Mom was playing in a golf tournament. This morning went great! Morning feeding and nap...check! Shower for me & bath for Eleanor...check! I started to feel like a pro as a I picked out my finest "daytime PJ's". We then ventured downstairs for lunch but Eleanor seemed unsettled. What was I to do?! How was I to proceed?! I put her down in the pack n' play and quickly made a grilled cheese sandwich in hopes she would fall asleep long enough for me to eat. That was not the case. After a go around, I discovered a poopy diaper and a hungry tummy. But, she had just been fed and changed less than an hour ago! So, there I sat eating a cold grilled cheese while nursing my little girl. At that moment it became clear...I'm a Mom!

ReplyDeleteI don't think I 'got ready' after a shower for several weeks after Luke was born because of the same reasons!!
