i am def a parent now

Before we had our sweet pea honey child, baby Jude, you could basically describe our lives as continual sleeping in and endless cuddles (wink wink). Now. Oh man. I am for sure a parent. It is Saturday, 9:14 am ET. I am dressed, fed, and have even returned from a quick trip to the local F Market with my small family. And our sweet babe is asleep for the first of his 17 thirty minute naps of the day(okay, he doesn't take 17/day but sometimes it feels that way what with all the rocking and soothing going on up in here). And I am putting up a blog. On a SATURDAY morning. Who am I?

--Had to take a brake, Jude woke up 25 minutes in, fed him, changed him, and after an hour of awake time he wants to sleep again. Sheesh.-- 

I love my baby and Dan and I are both enjoying being his parents, but are we ever glad that it took us four years to get here. Those four years. Ahhhh, glorious! I think of them oft when my back is killing me from rocking and when I get that pounding in my head after a 5:30am baby wake up.  That morning head pound, man, not a fan.

But anyways, I'm making it sound like I'm not having fun and not loving my Jude. False! We have so much fun and there is so much love here.

See look, there I am having a ball with the baby and loving on him.

And we love the dern kid so much, we got him this nifty "Jj" onesie just in case he forgets that Jude starts with a "J". We are good to him that way. And also who can pass up a hipster baby? Too cute!
