A journey through the wild ride of being a first time mother

You can read every book on the shelf about being a parent and what to expect with your new baby, but the only true preparation is experiencing it first hand.

I've been busy

So I know it has been a while, but i decided it was time to update The Ol' Blog. What can I say, I have been super busy with the holidays and work (its our busy season). These photos are not even close to being in order but i just want to give an update :)

She got to spend lots of time playing with friends.

4th times a charm. After pink eye, a staph infection and the flu she FINALLY had her eye surgery. Her daycare closes for the holidays and i pulled her out a week early to keep her home away from the germs so she wouldn't get sick. She looked like a baby toddler zombie for a couple weeks cause the whites of her eyes were completely bloodshot red. It was a little nerve racking but she handled it really well. The anesthesia did make her sick but that is normal and she was back to her stubborn self the day after surgery.

It snowed a lot and has been really cold, but we braved the weather and she got her first sledding experience and she loved it.

Second sledding experience with dad she did not enjoy so much. I don't blame her, we went up to the sledding hill and it was only about 10 degrees outside plus she didn't have a nap and was crabby.

Christmas lasted 3 days and she got an insane amount of presents for Christmas. We spend Christmas Eve with Jason's family, Christmas at home. It took her all day to open presents because she was so over stimulated and just wanted to play. The day after Christmas we got some presents late in the mail and she was excited she had more paper to tear up. She still randomly asks me to open presents.

Daddy (Jason) had to go out of town for a week for work and she missed him a lot and wanted to take lots of pictures for him but would never sit still long enough. She is actually in this picture saying "miss you daddy"

(this picture should be at the top, oops) Auntie CoCo came and visited us for a month. She was able to go with us to her surgery and since I pulled Kendall out of daycare for a couple weeks they got to spend a lot of time together so i could still work. We enjoyed having her here. It has been a long time since she got to stay and relax with us for that long. 

This weekend we are going on a little mini vacation to visit family in California and we can't wait to get out of the single digit temps and into a sunny 70 degrees. 

I am hoping i might be able to get back into the swing of blogging once things at work slow back down a little. Or i might just have to stay up late every night so i get a chance to blog :)
