  3. My in-laws are flying in for a visit at the end of this week and I’m hiring a cleaning person to come in and DEEP CLEAN.  I’ve never done this before but I am SUPER excited about it.  It completely takes away the stressful part of having guests.  I can’t believe I’d never thought to do this before.  But I guess I never needed to before.  It’s easy to dedicate a day to cleaning when you don’t have a new little needy creature in your house.

     


  4. Babies are such Hobbits about eating. Breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies…

     


  5. Pacifiers are for suckers (pun intended). Where’s the milk?!

  7. Oh man, I better start planning ione’s first birthday cake now. I have a reputation to uphold.

     


  8. Little Ione girl the Koo-Koo Bird is chirping in her swing.  She’s the best

    This child is being groomed for Rock and Roll greatness.

    Haha! Unrelated to motherhood, but I know these two! Although I haven’t seen them since that kid was like 5.
    Funny.

     


  10. Sometimes I wake Ione up just to make sure she’s still alive.

    Even when I can tell that she’s breathing.  When does that paranoia end?

    I swear I’m not crazy, guys.  I just really like her, ok?
