So I was lucky enough to have my mom come visit for 2 weeks with Lydia, Ryan, and I. During this time Ryan had his birthday which was so fun! We grilled hamburgers, made homemade french fries, ate ice-cream pie, and played the wii. My mom got so sore from playing that the next day she couldn't pass me a burp cloth without a great deal of effort :)
We also had conference which was so fun! I have to admit that I fell asleep Saturday afternoon session because I was all cuddled up with Lydia. That is definitely one of my favorite parts of being a mom!
She's had a little bit of colic for only 2 days. I went off most dairy products and it seems to have helped. I must say it's easy to go off something when you see your little one crying because of something you ate?! :( I am also wondering if chocolate is a culprit to colic? She is such a great baby and so easy going I want to make sure I don't hurt her little tummy. I guess this mom thing is a learning curve and eventually I'll come to understand what sets well with little Liddy. But when she's happy and calm, boy oh boy, she's an easy baby. Last night I got up once to feed her. WOW! I know that it always won't be like that, but those nights are awesome!
She is so pretty!! I'm so happy for you, my dear. Being a mom is the best job ever. Congratulations!!
