All I can say is that the hubster and I overreact a ton when it comes to Baby Girl.
Last night at dinner, she used a spoon and put it in her mouth. Nothing on the spoon, just an empty spoon. I was so overcome that I had tears prickling in my eyes. I look over and the Hubster is wiping away tear! So sweet, BUT
It's a using a spoon. It's not rocket science, lol.
Imagine what's going to happen when she does something amazing, like take her first steps. We are all going to lose out shit!

Things I've Learned
Warning: this is about baby poop.
Baby Girl has started to eat solids and now doesn't poop every day. That's fine by me, but not by my mom. She insists that Baby Girl should be pooping every single day. I don't even poop every single day.
She's been going pretty consistently on every 4th day which from Dr. Google is completely normal. Up to a week is still normal! So what have I learned from all of this?
A sure fire way to get your kiddo to poop is put them in nice clothes (i.e. not Carter's footed pajamas) and go out with an agenda. Case in point: I went to the mall to buy some new pants. I dressed Baby Girl to match me and guess what? She had the mother of all poops on the way to the mall and I didn't notice until we were in the dressing room of Nordstrom.
Diaper change in Nordstrom! I thought I was going to run out of wipes. It was gross.
Also every time I tell my mom that Baby Girl has pooped, she always responds with "She is happy now" without fail. I didn't know bowel movements were the key factor in happiness.

Everyone Needs A Baby
You know how most new parents are always telling other people to have babies as soon as possible and are always pushing the baby agenda on others? I secretly think it's not because they love babies now that they have one of their own. It's really more like they want others to be as exhausted as they are so they can commiserate together.
Misery loves company, right?
PS I love my baby and the exhaustion is worth it.

Someone Please Take My Money
I've spent the majority of the day trying to find someone to take my money. I went to the mall and have spent an embarrassing amount of time online shopping to not have purchased one thing for myself. I don't count the outfits I bought Baby Girl. Her clothes are so cheap compared to mine, it's like spending Monopoly money.
Since April, I have bought nothing but nursing related clothes (bras and tanks) and new underwear. That's it! I also don't count clothes purchased for costumes.
Struck out at Nordstroms, Free People, Anthropologie, Gap, Banana Republic. Well there is a dress at Anthro that I want, but I refuse to pay for shipping. $10.95 is pretty steep to try something on.
My back up purchase are some new shorts from Lululemon, but I already own the same pair and that's not real clothes that I can wear to work or some place other than the gym or grocery store.
Please help.

Bad Mom
Baby Girl had some bloody poo and we took her to see the doctor. The night before I googled it to see what we could expect to hear. The search results yielded anal fissure and dairy sensitivity.
I was really rooting for anal fissure because I don't want to give up dairy. 😂
Well I was wrong and have cut out dairy for almost two weeks. It's hard! I eat a lot of cheese 🧀
