How things change

Since I have become a mom almost 3 months ago many things have changed. I think of all scheduling with Niah's eating schedule and decide how to procede through out the day. I no longer work 12-15 hour days, Niah is my priority and although she can go to work with me she also needs time with just me and no other distractions. I am not as anal about my house being clean, I still clean my house and it stays clean but I would rather spend more time playing and caring for her then waste it cleaning when we get home. Now, I may not sweep and mop the floors several times a week it may only get mopped once. I may only get to cleaning the bathrooms once a week. My husband still thinks I am anal about it though :-) I now think about Niah before making any decisions, such as the trip to Alaska, I am contemplating on whether Niah can handle the long day travel, time change, and being away from home for that long. When I go shopping, I usually do not buy anything for myself but always a cute outfit for my little girl. Currently, my living room has a play mat, car seat, bouncer, swing, and stroller, we have become babies r us.

Niah is almost 3 months old. She is really talking and interacting. When she sees a familiar face she will immediately smile and lately she has started crying when she focuses on an unfamiliar face. She does not like people with any kind of glasses. Her new favorite toy is her floor mat. She hates to be cold so we go outside and walk when she is cold. One of her favorite things is to take a nap in our bed with me, she will sleep as long as I sleep. We are working on her going to sleep by herself. Anytime she is tired, we lay her down so she does not go to sleep being held. She now goes to sleep at 10 and wakes up at 9 am. She is still in newborn but she just started wearing smaller 0-3 months.

We just love our little Niah!!
