Kayden reached a milestone yesterday. She cried real tears! I know I’m not supposed to be happy when my baby cries, but I was so excited to see that her eyes were filled with water and her little blond lashes were wet. We had just gotten home from grocery shopping when it happened. She was in her car seat for probably an hour and a half to two hours. Kayden likes to stretch and move freely so she was getting a little cranky on our way home. Well when we got home we had to unload and put things away. I took her out of her car seat to let her stretch and then I put her in her swing. She normally loves her swing, but not this time. I let her whine a little bit as I put the first things away and then all of a sudden she began to cry very hard and her face went beat red. That I could not stand. I went to pick her up and that’s when I saw it… tears!! Immediately upon being picked up she relaxed and the tears dried. Ahh my daughter the drama queen!
So This is Where They Come From…

Scotty’s Shift
Today is finally Friday. After a near melt down last night because the lack of sleep is catching up to me, I look forward to a good night’s sleep tonight. I have been pumping all day so that Scotty can take the night shifts. I know this sounds a little unfair, but I have been taking every shift since Sunday night. I still have to wake up at least every three hours to pump so that I don’t lose my milk flow. Now, you might say that since I have to wake up anyway that I might as well just feed her rather than pump (and make Scotty get up too). But the process is so much more than that. We start with a diaper change, then we feed, then we swaddle, then we rock back to sleep. This is roughly an hour long process. Scotty so generously has volunteered to take tonight so that I can get some real sleep. I am looking very much to it! Thanks Scotty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m currently working on a few different approaches to embedding media on the site so I’m giving this one a try. I also really like this picture:) Â Click the picture to check out the rest of the photos in this set.
