Your heart will melt the first time your baby smiles at you.
Diaper explosions and leaks are inevitable, so carry plastic
bags at all times.
Z started sleeping through the night at 4 weeks. Yep, we’re
very, very lucky.
Teething sucks for everybody, but those pearly whites are so
cute!
We had our first ER visit when Z was 5 months old because of
an RSV scare at daycare. Thankfully she didn’t have RSV, just an ear infection.
She was chumming it up with the nurses while we waited to see the doctor.
Tragedies like Sandy Hook and the Boston Marathon bombings
make you realize how precious life is and how you’ll do anything to protect
your child. Z will always be my baby…even when she’s 60.
Milestones are exciting! Sitting up, crawling, starting
solids, talking, using a spoon and fork, waving, clapping, walking…there are so
many things your baby learns to do during her first year of life.
Take family photos on a regular basis. We’ve taken a total
of 4 since Z was born (and none professionally). I’ve vowed to get better about
this.
Take at least one photo a day of your kid. They grow too
fast.
Traveling is easy if you’re calm, come prepared, and go with
the flow.
The other day I was lying on our bed with Z and I kissed her
forehead. She looked at me, then reached over and gave me a really slobbery
kiss on my cheek. I started laughing so she kept doing it. Be sure to record
little moments like this so you can look back and reminisce.
It would be nice to be able to go to the bathroom alone.
An empty plastic bottle filled with macaroni noodles or
beads makes as good of a toy as a $5 rattle.
Google will put your mind at ease and give you more to worry
about all at once.
