Motherhood

I still can't believe I am mom to this beautiful gift from God! Tenley Marie joined us on October 18th, 2011. I have grown so much since she has been in my arms and my life has surly changed! Motherhood for me consist of:

No sleep
House is not organized
You take fast showers
You eat your meals fast
Sometimes you wonder if you even ate a meal
You learn to get ready in under 10 minutes
You may walk out the front door not realizing you still have your slippers on
Your life is suddenly all one day
You have no idea what day it is
Laundry,laundry and more laundry
Spit up is your new fregerance
Leaving the house takes an hour
As a stay at home mommy, I have a new respect for working mothers! They must have some hidden power!
You have a new respect for your own mom
It's hard to talk on the phone with your dear friends
It may take you all day to do one task or chore
Going to the grocery store by yourself is a reward!
You forget everything
You keep checking in the backseat to make sure you grabbed the baby
You cry at anything
You learn to set out more than one outfit day for you AND the baby
When your husband leaves for work you look at the clock and start counting the hours until he will be home again
Seeing your husband hold his baby girl makes you fall in love with him all over again
You miss your baby even when they are just sleeping
You still can't believe you have a baby
You have this overwhelming power to try and protect your child for everything
You wonder what you did before you had a baby
You thank God everyday for this amazing gift

There is so much more that comes with being a mom but I wouldn't change it for anything! We are so blessed with this little girl!
