Baby's First Hike

Last week "Grandma" was in town and we took Madison on her very first "hike!" We went up to Rocky Mountain National Park. Of course, Mommy was unprepared and wore Tevas hiking in the snow! Here is a quick video from up at Bear Lake:

I wanted to post this one for Dave....!



Hi to Hadley! :)

Happy Mama's Day!

What I've Learned in the Past 2 1/2 Months....

1. I can change a diaper in the dark. I'm sure I could do it blindfolded.
   
2. I can simultaneaously rock a baby w/ my foot, talk on the phone, eat, watch TV, read a magazine, and pump all at the same time.
   
3. Crying doesn't necessarily mean I'm Hungry. Crying doesn't necessarily mean I'm Tired. Crying can just be Crying for Crying's sake. For more info, see here.
   
4. The sound of two workmen hammering on your roof won't necessarily wake a sleeping baby. The sound of twenty-four workmen hammering on your roof can quite possibly wake a sleeping baby. The sound of a microwave oven suddenly beeping will most definitely wake a sleeping baby.
   
5. And speaking of sleep, I believe your definition of "sleep" changes once you have a baby. A four-hour stretch, for instance, is "good sleep." One-hour stretches still officially count as "OK sleep," and an 8-hour stretch is miraculous!

"Talking"

Here are a couple short video clips from my cell... not the greatest quality but you get the idea.
This is my first time uploading a video to the blog so we'll see how it works.

Um, try to ignore Mommy's "baby voice" in the background, hehee

Someone is ready to start talking any day now....... I am convinced!!
