Growth Spurt

Things to do when your child is going through some sort of mental and/or physical growth spurt:

1) Go to the zoo beforehand.  Don't take enough photos, but enjoy the company and the exercise


2) Pull your hair out. This should be easy with all the postpartum hormones making you shed like mad.

3) Discover 90s teen dramas on Netflix and relive the debate: Pacey or Dawson?  (Is it even a debate?)

4) Learn how to make nifty little collages on your phone, email them to your husband, and then keep checking back to see if he thinks the 99 cents were spent well.


5) Remember that you will sleep when you're dead.  Or, more realistically, that you'll sleep when he stops nursing incessantly.

6) Pose him in the perfect spot for a before/after shot.

One week and Thirteen weeks

7) Clean out his drawers and keep only those final outfits you want to squeeze him in just one more time before upgrading to the next size.

8) Try to write as much as you can so you don't forget that he was ever this little

  2. "I'll sleep when I'm dead" was my mantra for two years. The good news is, I'm sleeping again, and Whitaker has been old enough to stay with grandparents several times, so I've even had some catch-up days. PDG is still super cute!
