A few things I have learned........

I was thinking about how fast time has flown and I decided to make a list of a few of the things I have learned in the last 4.5 months. I don't have any pictures to post, I am just rambling! So here is my list:

1. The body CAN keep going without sleep and it won't shut down, no matter how many times you think it is happening!

2. No matter how tired you are, the sight of your baby can make you smile.........even at 3am!

3. Sweat pants, old t-shirts, and a ponytail.........the perfect look for a new mom. Babies seem to LOVE it because that is all they will let you wear!

4. Shaving your legs is now a luxury instead of a task!

5. Your heart will actually flutter when you kiss your baby!

6. You lose all sense of pride when you have a baby. You will talk the dumbest baby talk and say the craziest things and it doesn't matter where you are or who can hear you!

7. You learn that ears are CUTE.............and butts, and toes, and every other body part that you thought was nasty before

8. Everyone who has EVER had a baby is an expert. And everything you do is wrong! Ha! This includes people in Target that see you in the baby aisle and corner you to tell you what you should feed, when, and how often. I mean really people? Advice is great and I do appreciate it. But until you can say that you gave birth to Hollan Adair Herring on January 7th, 2010.........please keep your opinions to yourself until I, or her daddy, ask for them. Did I have an experience in Target? Yes, I did. Okay, enough about that. I will get all fired up again and put myslef in a bad mood! Ha!!!!!!!! So, SHUT UP lady in Target!! Now I feel better!

9. You look at your husband in amazement becasue the little person you see in the bouncy seat is sooooo much like him already it is crazy! I love it!!

10. You can't wait for them to take a long nap so you can get things done. And then you wait for them to wake up because you can't stand it anymore! Get up and play with me please!!!!!!!!


Okay, enough for today. I will think of more later! 3 more days of school and Hollan and I are off to meet the newest addition of our family, Miss Emily Caroline! Can't wait!!!!!!!!!
