Okay, so very honestly, I wondered if I was ever going to get a chance to update my blog. And now that I hear my kid stirring, I wonder if this update will get published.
So a lot has changed since my last post. Obviously, I gave birth, and said "goodbye" to my life as it was. Gerber was right...having a baby changes everything.
I can't say it's all been puppy dogs and rainbows. The actual birth was cake, but life after has been tough. Yes, it gets a little easier every day as she gets older, and I figure out how she works. I have to admit, I was not at all prepared for how much work babies are, or how much my life would change.
To a certain degree, I still don't see myself as a mom. I think its because growing up an only child I have been able to just make my life all about me. It's been hard adjusting to the fact that it's no longer about me. I'm still fighting that to a certain degree, but I'm okay making my life about her as well. But she is fun - and cute. I had a hard time bonding at first, but we get closer every day. I'm pretty sure that is a good thing.
Gotta go. Regan calls.

Your world is upside down right now, but you will figure out the new normal. And you have only been a mom for a few months--you have been you for a lot longer. It will take awhile to really feel like a mommy. I'm sure you are doing great--give yourself a break!!
