Super Mom



I am so NOT super mom.

Just a few things to entertain your thoughts...

  • The hair on my legs can no longer be qualified as stubble. yikes.
  • My pony tail hasn't even been redone from sleeping in it last night.
  • There are burp cloths (which I prefer to call "milk rags") and blankets and bra pads all over my house.
  • The laundry from like, four days ago is still sitting on my washer.
  • I dropped some banana bread batter on the floor this morning, and totally forgot about it until I heard Zoe licking it up.
  • I still have paperwork from the hospital that I haven't put away/filed.
  • Pretty sure there are a few bills on the counter from before she was born that still haven't been paid. oh my goodness.
  • I am getting pretty darn good at rocking this no makeup look.

BUT! Things I know...

  • Molly is peacefully sleeping.
  • Her diaper is clean and her belly is full.
  • Zoe was let out to go potty this morning.
  • Dinner is cooking in the crockpot and will be ready when Chris comes home tonight.
  • My love for coffee has skyrocketed since this little one has been born.
  • The Lord is speaking to my heart. I want to share in another post at another time.
That is all for now. I know that things are still new....Molly is only four weeks old (today!) and I've technically only been by myself (without Mom...I miss you!!) for two weeks, but this is like a whole new ballgame to learn. Please don't read this the wrong way...I love being a mommy and Molly is an amazing baby. It is just very different. More to come. I can see myself starting to ramble.... *grin*

  2. Wow this is so perfect! Amy you are doing so well with prioritizing and realizing what is important! You are doing exactly what that letter said! Way to go :o) I know the little things pile up to be overwhelming, but you are doing what matters most! And at that you aren't just doing it- but you are doing it well! btw- I love that picture of Molly! Seriously- anyone could clean you house, pay your bills, pick up banana bread off the floor...but ONLY YOU can be a mom to Molly and a wife to Chris. And you are doing a great job at those! Thanks for being so real :o)
