Happy Birthday Reece!

Gosh I don't even know where to begin! What a year! Was it what I expected? Yes and No and then some! What I realized during my 1st year as a mom is do what works for you! There is going to be a lot of judgement. I'll be honest I was one of those people. I always said I would never co-sleep and guess what? Reece was in our bed somewhere around the 8th month. I was at my wits end and I needed sleep and it worked. Then we moved her to her room like a big girl. Now she sleeps in a queen bed. I know someone out there reading this is judging. hehe What else?? Aaah...breastfeeding. If you don't do it people say stuff and if you do it-it's always you didn't do it long enough and if you're me you're still doing it! But besides the poop and the lack of sleep, I wouldn't change a thing. I have a little girl who is sociable, sweet, independent, and of course the most beautiful. I couldn't ask for a better daughter, husband, family, and friends. I am so lucky for all the support that I've had all year! I already feel like Reece is all grown up! Hehe. We have her appointment later so I will give you stats then. Oh did I mention Reece is sick on her birthday. I hope it clears up by tomorrow for her party! Really don't know what it is! My best guess is teething! Her top teeth are finally coming in!

Cheerios Anyone???

Omg! Besides having Reece by my side 24/7, do you know how people know I'm a mom??? I walked around for most part of the day with a cheerio stuck to the front of my shirt! That's how! You'll be happy to know that I didn't pull it off and eat it. hehe
