It’s not that I don’t have anything to blog these days, it’s just that I’m unable to blog. I mean physically. Because at all times, there’s a baby attached to me. I thought once I gave birth, I was done carrying the baby 24/7. Turns out I was wrong. The Doodlebug is a crier. Loves [...]

The Doodlebug hates baths. I mean hate. Therefore, I hate giving him baths. He lets out these blood-curdling screams that break my heart. So, I think he should go dirty. I mean, he’s only three and a half weeks old; who does he need to impress? But for some reason, Adam thinks he needs to [...]

Someone recently asked me, “So other than the baby, what have you been up to?” Surprisingly, I was able to keep from punching him.

Doodlebug, like most babies, does this thing where he, out of nowhere, begins to wave his arms around wildly. Then, just as suddenly, he’ll stop. It’s some sort of baby reflex. When Adam saw him doing this, he said, “Awww, Doodlebug is conducting the baby orchestra!” Which I thought was funny, because when I saw [...]

Have you missed me? Somehow things like blogging–and eating and sleeping–don’t seem to rank as a high priority right now. However, Adam has set up a laptop with wireless for me, so maybe I can quickly blog between feedings. Although considering that I started this blog entry a full day ago and it has yet [...]
