2 months

Two wonderful months have raced past in a blur of diapers and snuggles. And, although I often wonder if I'll ever have the time or creative energy to write anything that is witty, poignant or spell checked again...I have often thought of the blog land over the last several weeks. I'll think , oh I should write about that later, or the hubster will make a comment about how a situation would make an interesting post for my blog.


Then, I whip out my boob to nurse and all of a sudden three hours have gone by and I am staring zombie- like at who knows what on the muted TV and I wonder how it got to be 11pm. Also, I wonder why my girl is still up. The dogs, on the other hand, are wondering where the fuck their dinner is.


So it seems I have a moment now, so I thought I should let you all know that we're All Good here in the family love nest. We even survived the first round of immunization shots. The dogs, however, are a little disgruntled -but they're hanging in.


The coolest thing about being a mom is messing with your child. Here, Ruby is being ever so patient while my friends and I create an artistic gumboot and bikini photo shoot.
Here we are, all smiles, after an 8 hour sleep ( that's right folks- but it doesn't happen all the time, so please don't hate me). This was our first family road trip/ practice mini vacation to Victoria.
And this is just an adorable photo of my gorgeous baby girl.



We love you Ruby!

TWO MONTHS?! what the crap?
I can't believe you are the momma of a two month old!
You guys look great- all three of you. And I love the boots/bikini ensemble. But is messing with your kid REALLY the best part of being a mom?
In that case, I need to stock up at the after-Halloween-costume rack.
Good to hear from you!

I can't stop laughing at the bikini gumboot outfit! I should really show you all the pictures I never posted of me and my sis messing with our kid's outfits, mostly by putting them in the 70's pant suits my mom saved from when we were kids - priceless!

I really do want to eat her up - even if the gumboots might get caught in my throat. xoxo

Gorgeous boots/bikini combo. Will have to try that one out on my own little clothing guinea pig sometime! Glad you're enjoying and savouring this amazing time with your baby girl:)
