i'm linking up with e myself and i for some midweek confessions
- fly boy and i have started referring to charley's pacifier as "the plug." i have no intentions of calling it anything else.
- i give charley the plug everytime she fusses before i actually pick her up in hopes that she will magically calm down. it works approximately 13% of the time, but i am a die-hard optimistic.
- while fly boy is out of town for some training for 8 weeks, every morning when i hear sweet charley screaming to let me know she has woken up, i sometimes usually roll over and pray that she goes back to sleep for a few more minutes. it has yet to work, but again, i'm optimistic.
- i count taking charley's two month pictures (coming soon) and folding laundry together as "quality girl time."
- when the plug, rocking, swaying, the swing, the bouncer and the ergo would not sooth charley, i opted for the guaranteed-stop-all-crying car ride today. i was meeting my brother for lunch, but left an extra 15 minutes early to drive around and make sure that she fell asleep before arrive at the restaurant.
- i have fallen in love with a new blog, and got some GREAT ideas for my future sister-in-law's wedding shower this summer. for the first time in my life i am ahead of the game in planning! it.feels.great. but...i'm pretty sure i will go back to my old ways of procrastination soon.
i think its pretty obvious i have a new baby...
Oh your life sounds all too familiar! We are nine months in and the "plug" is still working like a charm. Do you have a wubbanub yet? If not, you need to look it up on Amazon stat! :) Hope you are doing well... Charley is precious and you sound like a perfect momma.
