Blogging with One Hand


I started this post about 10x by now, and I'm determined to get it done, even if I have to do it with one hand!! Little one is a pretty good sleeper, but she definitely prefers sleeping in our arms to any of the devices we purchased for this purpose, so for now, we're not fighting it too much.

Matt is back to work, but luckily his office is at home, so I have handed little one off to him so that I may actually finish this post in a reasonable time period. Things are going well. Breastfeeding was certainly a challenge to get going and continues to have its ups and downs, but it feels like we've finally got the hang of things (knock on wood). Sleeping isn't going too badly either so far, despite the aforementioned issue and that she doesn't really sleep on the schedule we might prefer.

She is a sweet, fairly mellow baby and we're really enjoying the heck out of her. It's hard to believe she's been here almost two weeks and just as hard to believe that she wasn't always here.

  1. Lovely lovely photo! Purple is her colour, for sure I think that it took three months before I really got comfortable with the breastfeeding thing (well, Madeline and I, really). And there were still some ups and downs after that, but nothing is insurmountable.

  2. Tabitha is a cutie. I've had other friends with children say the same thing about forgetting what it was like before their wee ones.

  3. Ours pretty much hates the crib and sleeping at all during the night. He's a mellow tot, but it'll be nice when he's fond of that expensive baby confinement device.

  4. Aww…. I love that picture! Jess, can you believe you're a mommy now?
    Good luck with the breastfeeding. It took a while for my little ones to get the hang of it too. Hopefully you guys got the hang of it now.
    Kisses to Tabitha!

  5. I'm so glad things are going well! You should read my posts from the first few months of Lila's life; we had major breastfeeding issues. It's definitely a job, but it really has been worth it for us.
