We had a very busy Canada Day weekend! We started on the Friday as Daddy had the day off from work. We went to Tatamagouche so that Lily could meet her Great Grammie and her Great Grampy for the first time! It was a long drive, but Lily slept the whole way. She enjoyed meeting […]
When Lily was only 2 months old, she attended her very first dance competition. She was held by my students in their sparkly costumes, she watched as they rehearsed and applied make-up, she wen backstage with me to watch them perform, she went into the audience with me to watch other dances, she had the […]
Okay, I’m a little late with this post, but I’m finding that it is actually a lot more difficult to find time for this than I had been expecting. Lily’s first Easter was a lot of fun. I was VERY excited even though I knew she wasn’t going to understand what was going on. On […]
Today, I took Lily to the movies. We went to see Mirror, Mirror at Empire Theatres. It was a Reel Babies showing, so the movie was played a little quieter than normal and the lights were on a bit so I could see the baby and they had change tables set up in the theatre. […]
Yesterday, Lily turned 2 months. We had her monthly check up where she weighed in at 11 pounds and 9 ounces. She is now only in the 73% instead of the 85%. I’m not worried about that though, she’s still a big girl! She was also given her immunizations yesterday. That was probably the hardest […]
Right now, Lily is laying in my arm, sleeping on my shoulder while I type with one hand. It is these moments I love the best about my new life as a Mom. Lately I have been having a hard time getting her to sleep through the day when we are at home. She will […]
It has been a while since my last post. It gets very busy with a little baby all day long. When I started this blog I figured I would have some time while she napped to do a little write up everyday. Unfortunately, I’m finding she rarely naps long enough for me to load or […]
On the weekend I finally broke down and put Lily in size 3 clothes. She has been big enough for a couple of weeks, I think, but I was in denial that she was so big. They fit her perfectly, so I decided yesterday that I should go through her clothes and get rid of […]
Yesterday Lily was 1 month old. It is absolutely amazing to me how fast the time has gone. The memories of disappointment, fear and feelings of inadequacy at the hospital have faded into the background and been replaced with excitement, anticipation and love as I look forward to what is to come. We went to […]
I am slowly getting used to the idea of being home all day with a new baby. It is really helpful that she is now staying awake for longer periods and then having longer naps. It is also helpful that in the morning, after sleeping for about 6 straight hours, she wakes up full of […]
