What in the ever living...

I am sure you can fill in the rest.  So there is no mistaking my daughters photos.  When you see her, she is in a brace.  She has a medical condition, and has to wear it.  Cool.  What isn't cool is when instead of folks asking what it is, or for, they assume I did something to her.  WTF?!  She was born that way.  Thanks.

I didn't even think twice until yesterday when I got terrible looks and questions at the restaurant we were at.  Then I looked at the support group I am a part of on Facebook.  Some of the parents even had DCFS called on them by neighbors.  Seriously.  If you are so curious, just ask.  I don't care.  I'd rather get more kids and babies screen for hip dysplasia and get them aware of how common it really is.  Don't judge.  She is getting the best medical care possible.  But how crappy for some folks to assume that parents hurt their kid?  My goodness.

Mom Life

So I am pretty sure that when I was pregnant, I had these thoughts, dreams, and ideas of what motherhood would be like.  And then when that baby comes, it is so different.  Different good.  Your outlook on things is different.  Your priorities are different.  Your give a shit factor-different.
That tiny human just changes it all.  And it is amazing.  Yes, I just started a sentence with And.

I just read this article on motherhood.  My instant though was "Holy shit, this lady nailed it".

Worth the read.  I sent it to my DH and said "Don't even walk through that door tonight until you read this.  I am having a day".  It was a hard day.  Irritable baby, and when you work from home, you don't get much done.  It was just exhausting.  But I wouldn't have it any other way.

3 Months!

My little one is already 3 months old.  Yes, I suck at posting on here.  Mostly because it takes time away from a sweet baby girl.  She is asleep now.  Yes:) Morning coffee and blogging!!
