My sweet son turned three months old today.
I cannot believe it. Three months. How time flies...(well)
I am only a first time mom and this is my last time being a mom too....but I have to say... SHIT it is NOT easy. Some people can say "time flies, before you know it he willbe in college" and I think back on these past three months...LOVING every minute of having Joey in my life... yeah it has gone by fast, some days and some days it has gone by slow.
I never thought motherhood would be an easy task. I remember babysitting one time and I was taking Care of this kid for a week while his folks were enjoying the sun, (this is when I was living in Hingham). So he was a bit challenging at this age of two and still lots of fun. I was and am always one to keep busy, so there was a lot going on for us, but at one point mid week I remember stopping and thinking..."Crap, how do single parents do this?" Now I was just babysitting, and I was tired... I have no idea how a single mom can do all that is done, and work and daycare and other stuff..
My little man is easy. We have climbed over the colic stuff and have just started thinking about a routine.....I LOVE routines. I can plan around them and through them. Structure is what I like and I am hoping that with this new month of age, my son will pick up on the "routine" thing...
We'll see....whatever comes our way comes.. I am ready and almost prepared.
For those curious minds...
No he is not sleeping through the night. I am up a few times, and love every moment of it.
I am still breastfeeding and hate using formula. He really does not care much for it either.
I have no plans to get back to the grind as of yet and I love every minute of that, yet it mean we will be poor and that is fine.....
On our walk tonight, Dan and I were thinking back at three months ago today. The little man in our arms as a newbie, a plebe a freshman.....He is three months old today... He is 90 days old.
He has passed the probation period, is super fun, super cute and we're gonna keep him...
I think you have ALSO passed the probation period with flying colors! Way to go, and you are doing a great job with all of those things you mentioned. I think Joey wants to keep you, too!
