the long and the short of it is this: we are doing awesome. everyday nora changes a little bit. she looks so different than she did when we brought her home. it's amazing. i can't wait to get up each day and see whats new in her world. i love being her mommy. being at home with her each day is the greatest blessing i've ever experienced. i love her ohhh so much. :)
i asked josie if you would know if you had an ugly baby once when i was pregnant. she said, "you would know... trust me." well... i don't know. :) i'm quite certain nora is the prettiest babe i've ever seen. :) she's just so cute! i can't even barely stand it. :) she looks like her daddy. :) good thing, huh? LOL!
breastfeeding is going well, although i wish God would have installed a little gas gage on babies tummys that say when they are full and when they are empty because i hate guessing. :)
so i had my first dream last night. i realized when i woke up that i never dream anymore. apparently i had my first long stretch of sleep since nora has been born that i got in a little dream. :) thank you nora, my sweet lil babe, for those amazing four hours of semi-interrupted sleep.
here's the backstory of my dream: we gave nora bird her first bottle of breastmilk last night - it went terribly wrong - and as kev was disposing (ack... i HATE throwing away breastmilk) of the excess he says to me, "what do you think this tastes like?" i replied, "well, i'm not sure but i've been wondering the same thing." nooo... don't worry, he didn't. it was just too weird. i think he thought about it... but he didn't. :)
during nora's last feeding before bed we watched the tivo-ed episode of survior man with will ferrill. i don't really watch tv anymore but it was background noise before bed.
mmkay - and now, to my long awaited synopsis of my dream. i dreamt that kevin and i and some other un-named members of his family were with survivorman on some african safari. we were all stranded and hungry and (you must have seen this coming) dehydrated. survivorman suggested that we all boil our pee and drink that to stay alive when a (once again un-named) member of my husband's family stated, "well, kenzie is lactating... let's drink that." i know this dream is weird. trust me. I KNOW. so here i was in the african safari pumping breastmilk to feed all these people in the mother-loving jungle. it got weirder - i only had my little hand pump and my hand got tired so i turned into a pump your own buffet... it just wasn't pretty. and so weird.
i woke up thinking... hmmm... maybe its a good thing i don't dream anymore. because this was a nightmare! ack! :) LOLOLOL!

Hi! I am new to the blog and wanted to introduce myself!
I always wondered about the "ugly baby" thing- if you would really be able to tell...but I can say as an outside and unbiased source that Nora is just Beautiful!! Congrats- can't wait to follow along =)
Hilarious Kenze I my self have dreamed of feeding people my breast milk. I don't think you would actually know if your baby was ugly, you just love them too much. Rest assured Nora is adorable.
