a hand-me-down

asa and i went to my girlfriend's house last week and went shoppin' through her hand-me-downs. this kid is set for life, man. here is an item that we borrowed that will come in handy in a few months. hysterical... (thanks dookie shoot for all the loot...we're having so much fun playing dress up.)

oh to blog

to think that i would blog once a week much less daily is quite funny to me...matter of fact...hilarious. i always wondered with new moms, "what could they possibly be doing all day? surely they could spend an hour emailing or blogging after just having a newborn." [long awkward pause] man, was i ever wrong like a thong. good night nurse in the freakin' morning! for every mother out there, you know what i am talking about. the first few weeks of this journey any "free" second of the day was devoted to one of the following: eating, peeing, nursing my second degree battle wounds, soaking in epsom salt as the doctor ordered, trying to have a "pleasant" bowel movement, or SLEEPING....oh sweet precious sleep. all the other minutes in the day were/are devoted to providing sweet, lucious milk to my son. there is so much that i want to say and share, but i just haven't had the energy or time. i am still trying to figure out how to manage my time with a newborn. but good news is...asa is working out a routine now, so we've been doing pretty good the past week, so i am able to plan a little better, and my day is a little more predictable. many friends have told me to keep bloggin', so don't give up on me! more later! :o)

all smiles

asa will be six weeks old tomorrow. he's just now starting to really smile. here's a fun pic we took this morning (after a looooong yesterday....he's in his six week growth spurt....i fed him 12 times yesterday!!!). durn, i am pooped.
