All of the things I said I would never do:
1. Let my baby sleep in my bed
2. Buy Burt's Bees baby products (too expensive)
3. Impose my baby's pictures on other people
4. Become a germ-a-phobe
5. Declare that my child is the cutest ever
6. Buy anything pink (and actually like it)
7. Baby talk
8. Call myself "mama" or Andy "daddy"
9. Let the cats get too close to the baby (see below, don't worry they don't like her, just the sun)
9. (for Andy) Admit that everyone was right when they said, "it will be different with your own kid; you might not like other people's kids, but you'll like yours."
The list could go on, but I will stop, lest y'all think I am a jerk. Kids do sort of turn your world upside down, or maybe it is right-side up.
I am happy to say that Evan has moved out of our bed, that only lasted about a week and I decided that I needed some sleep. She is now snoozing happily in her laundry basket turned bassinet (thanks, Rian).
Andy is an awesome dad. I'm not just saying that, in fact, he has never even looked at our blog, so, I am being truthful when I say he is doing a great job. He is very attentive, helpful, and very much in love with the new girl in his life.
See # 3 on the list of things I said I would never do. I feel entitled though because 2/3 of Evan's grandparents live in NC so this is the only way for them to see her...and the only way I can justify taking pictures of her nearly every day.
Does it look like I am getting enough to eat?
Preparing for my favorite pastime.
