Mom Moments

Well yesterday was Cora's three week birthday.  It is crazy how much changes when you have a baby.  I am not complaining just noticing that there are some very big differences between my life ten months ago and my life today.  For example ten months ago I never would have forgotten that I was wearing my slippers and walked out the front door.  Ten months ago I would have noticed that my shirt was on inside out way before my sister had to tell me.  Ten months ago I would be one of the people sleeping right now instead of sitting in the dining room while the rest of the house is sleeping writing a blog post, because when else is it going to get written.  Ten months ago I was in nursing school.  I am still processing through the last one, I am not quite sure how I feel about not going back this fall (they didn't give me much of a choice, but that is a whole other post.)  I can't remember the last time I turned on the TV and watched the Cubs, or How I Met Your Mother, there just doesn't seem to be time. Also I hate being late to anything, I prefer to be super early than late but since Miss. Cora arrived I seem to be leaving the house when I am supposed to be somewhere.  I have started to figure out how long it takes me to get out of the house with her, so hopefully I will be back to my early self soon.  Being a mom has changed so much in my life and part of me is mourning my old life, looking back it was pretty great.  I am glad that I didn't take for granted the ten years Greg and I spent just being a couple and now I am determined not to take this new adventure for granted either.  Here are some pictures from the new adventure we are on...it is pretty great. 

PS: I started this post on Saturday, but am just now getting around to publishing it.
