New Parents

Nothing cracks me up more then NEW PARENTS!!
I know, I was once one and once just as clueless.

But the one thing that cracks me up most of all is when I tell a new parent to just "lay the baby down!"
They look at me like "Why on earth would I do that? She is screaming bloody murder!" 
Hear me out: You are all stressed out.
Nothing you have tried to calm the baby has helped.
You've fed her
You've changed her
You've rocked her
Sung to her
Bounced with her
Walked her down the street
You've done everything and you are stressed beyond belief and the kid is still screaming.

PUT HER DOWN!!

If you are stressed beyond stressed and holding this poor sweet baby then you are causing the baby to scream!!!

When the light bulb goes off and they look at me like "Why the heck didnt I think of that." your work is done!!

Now go ahead and laugh at me cause I did not figure that lesson out till baby #2!! HA HA HA

Six is Bliss

Lauren Christine Dillard was born February 6, 2013 She is now 4 1/2 months and the JOY of ALL of our lives!! She is so very happy and laid back! She sleeps 12 hours (plus++) a night she nurses about every 4 hours during the day and just loves to SMILE!! With the head of hair she was born with she has been a great model for my Boutique

I put Lauren in the Church nursery for the first time today! You would think by now I would be a total Pro at this! NO WHERE CLOSE!! My body is still reacting to it all and over producing milk from the emotional over drive I went into! On the way there I had a nose bleed just thinking (and stressing completely out). When we got there she was the last one to be dropped off. During service I listened as best I could but found myself staring at the clock and wishing pastor would just hurry up already (I know I am going to hell). I busted through the door as soon as he said "Amen" I didnt wait for the "You are now excused" ;-) Made a B-Line for her room and got there in record time. They couldn't hand her to me quick enough. I threw the tots in their seat and rushed home fast as heck so I could nurse her. I cried driving home from the over load. I am such a sucker! I love my babies!
