When the two month old barfs everywhere... poor babyj

Make a choice that you will start acknowledging all the good in your life. “If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you. It will be enough” said Meister Eckhart, the German philosopher and mystic. Because everything you say, everything you feel, everything you think produces an effect in your world. When you appreciate and are grateful for what you have and who you are right now, what you have increases and who you are becomes greater.

This song is playing in the background while I drown in a cloud of black emotion. Dealing with the mental illness of those you love can be harder than being mentally ill yourself... I'm tired. But on I'll press.

Boob sleeping

Trying to watch an entire movie. But babyj fell asleep while eating and is hugging the breast. I've decided on leaving it exposed throughout the movie rather than risk waking him up... thoughts?

When you receive an email from BuyBuyBaby advertising this product... feeding my baby (breast for the record) I connect with him on a level no words could describe. I would never want to purchase gadget that made it "hands free". I may be a learning momma but this is crazy stooooopid.

Love is... saving the last crab Rangoon for your wife

Dinner dates have slightly changed.... "yes I'll have a large iced water and a large hot water to warm my 4 oz of breast milk to go" 🙌🏼

There is something eerie about an empty car seat in the back of my car. Left BabyJ with his aunt while I'm at the dentist and realized if they have an emergency they have no car seat.... nothing like a panic attack before the dentist. 😩 ....so much to learn

This morning I walked into our guest room to check on it's status as we have guests next weekend. I wanted to be mad that Poodle didn't make the bed with the sheets that I clearly asked him to "throw on the guest bed" when I pulled them from the dryer". But then it hit me.... how proud he must have been when asked to "throw" them on the bed when instead he folded them and placed them on the bed. He FOLDED a fitted sheet.... perhaps I should be more specific. #learningdaddy

I know it’s late because the star nightlight still lights up our ceiling. I never wake up alone— Poodle does every diaper change in the middle of the night before feedings. It’s his way of contributing to the cause, of saying “i am a present father”, and while it pails to the hour and a half that I’m awake to feed from one breast, pump from the other and clean up the trail that causes… it makes me feel like he moves mountains for me. I love this man.

Omitting the truth or failing to mention something is the same as lying. #amiright

4 years ago my life changed when I met my husband (Poodle). 6 weeks ago my world changed when I met our son (J). Life is moving so quickly. Every hour of every day is a journey I’ve never experienced before. It’s crazy really... I’ve been told a newborn would turn my life upside down. J keeps me grounded. J offers me clarity through any difficult moment in my life. When the world around me begins to wobble, when the noise of the stress stampedes into my brain... I curl up with babyJ and my mind empties immediately. My heart becomes so full it could burst, I can feel every beat pulsating with pureness, with love and with happiness. And at the end of the day, I owe this sense of intoxicating love to my husband. He is our sanctuary of safety that allows all of our fears to escape. He is our protector, our hero in every sense of the word. Without him, I would have no babyJ. Regardless of life’s daily struggles, through the battles of relationship woes and tiffs, even mid argument with my husband, I feel love for him in the deepest depths of my soul for giving me life’s greatest gift. We are all on this journey together, learning together. #learningmomma
