A month already?!?

It seems hard to believe, but J. is already a month old. Okay, I admit that there are days that crawl by ever so slowly, but for the most part, it's going by fast.

Yesterday was one of those days when I could totally relate to how easy it would be for a new mom to get the baby blues. My husband was busy working outside most of the day, so I was inside taking care of J. In the evening, he had a softball game, so again I was alone taking care of the little monkey. In the three hours that my husband was gone, J. managed to go through 3 wardrobe changes. Twice, he spit up on both me and himself, and then later, as I was feeding him, he pooped up the back. It ended up leaking out and all over him, his clothes, me, my clothes, and the Boppy pillow. It was an absolute mess. Then, while I was busy trying to clean everything up, Costa (my dog) stole J.'s bottle from the night stand and ate off the nipple. My husband felt bad about my experience though, and offered to get up with J. all night last night. I'm no fool - I took him up on it, and am a much happier mommy today.
