One, two, three, four, five, six, seven..ah, I lost count of all the fat rolls!
"Mom, I told you not to show them my boobies!"
Today, was one of those days, where you teach yourself a hard, life lesson. Before I start, let it be known that I do not have a fascination with poop; I just seem to be finding myself elbows deep in it lately. So, I thought I would try giving Salem prunes to see what she thought of them yesterday, and guess what, she loved them! Also, she didn't fill her drawers at all yesterday; so I thought, what the heck! Now, I am paying for that, let me just tell you.....
*4 baths later * 4 wardrobe changes later * 4 loads of laundry later * change of crib sheets later *Oh, followed by a washing of her swing liner because she shit in that too!
She, of course, just thought it was THE GREATEST THING that has ever happened to her. She laughed and carried on while I scrubbed her, the swing, changing table, crib, bathtub, etc. You should have seen her face light up after a put her in the tub time after time, after time. She might have not thought this way before, but now I am convinced that she thinks I am the greatest Mom ever and that she shouldn't trade me in for a new one. Actually, she will probably change her mind when she finds out that I won't be meeting those same expectations tomorrow(well keep your fingers crossed that I won't be.)
To be 100% honest with you, it really was one of the best days I had with Salem. Sounds crazy, huh? The ENTIRE day was devoted to her and we just laughed through it all. We had a private Itsy Bitsy Yoga session today, followed by infant playgroup, and spent the rest of the day playing and cleaning off in the bath, which she loves. I feel like I get so wrapped up in my days doing this and that, running here and there, cleaning this broke ass apartment(Noel, give it up, no matter how much you scrub this place, it will ALWAYS be a broke ass apartment without your things and nothing more than that), cooking meals, getting online, ordering this, ordering that, going to the gym, that I KNOW I don't give Salem enough attention that I want to. Baby shit made me realize that today. All that information might be taken the wrong way. I do devote a lot of myself to her, but I know I could be giving her much more.
Uh, I'm getting all emotional now and I'm going to go check in on her sleeping.
" I'm going to eat my fist since I have nothing left in my tummy."( And still cover my boobie! )

What a BIG girl! She has grown so much and looks like a kid now, not the teeny infant she used to be...man, I hate missing out on stuff like that!! Good work Noel (I guess we will give andrew some credit too), she is a true beauty :0)
She is so cute! I can just see her little playful personality in those pictures!
I know what you mean about feeling like you should devote more time....if I am not giving Becca 100% I feel guilty, but really, that just isn't realistic. So, on days that I can, I just enjoy it! Most days she has to entertain herself for a good part of the day while I get stuff done. Until I get a full-time housekeeper and cook and personal assistant, that's how it will be!

You are dong fine work. Don't you just love all of those rolls?! I just want to bite her and hold her! So adorable! I can't wait to see her in Tx!
Don't feel bad I a know you are a good mom (and I haven't even seen you 2 together). I saw first hand how wonderful you were with other people's children so I have no doubts that you are a wonderful mom with Salem.
Love the rolls. :)
