Things I'm Learning...

I decided that it is SUPER easy to feel like I have no clue what I'm doing as a Mommy!  But the reality is...i'm learning something new every single day.  I decided that I'm going to focus on all the things I'm learning and have learned....and I'll try to post as often as possible!

Things I've Learned So Far....
-Don't feed Aylen and then stick him right in his carseat.  Puking will happen.
-He enjoys his bouncer, but isn't to hot on the Aquarium that is directly above it (so we took it off).
-I'm closer to succeeding at the Moby Wrap.  I know I'll love it, but it takes a bit to get used to how tight it needs to be.
-Aylen loves when you tap his bum multiple times while holding him.  I learned that babies tend to enjoy rapid patting because it reminds them of the heartbeat in the womb.
-In the middle of the night-it is okay to wake others when I'm feeling very frustrated.  (this is healthy and preferred).
-THAT EVERYONE has an opinion, but truly we have to do what works for us.  And we aren't going to mess Aylen up (i'm working on this).
-I can take a nap when Aylen takes a nap.
-It is super important to keep doing the fun things with Russ.  This includes ride on a motorcycle.  Just because we are parents doesn't mean we have to stop riding.  We are just as careful as we were before little man.
-I have figured out the PUMP.  I still am not used to the PUMP, but I mean who really gets used to feeling like a milk machine.
-IT IS so important to keep in contact with other mothers.  I don't know what I would do without them right now.

Ok that is it for right now...I'll continue to post.
