One of my birthday gifts from Ajax was $50 in apps for my iPod. I just blew $10 of it on this app so I can keep up my blog without having to sit down at the computer. Fingers crossed it works and I use it. (Lord knows the $10 I tossed out for the Sims wasn't worth it.)
Soooooo... Here on my trusty iPod in my notes I have a list of things I want to blog about. And I'll get to them in time. But for now I'd just like to reflect on the beauty of my life. I am sitting in Ruby's nursery feeling very Under The Sea with her orange seahorse light casting a gentle glow Sarah's gorgeous mural. Ruby is crashed out in my arms and I'm praying for the clock to go slower. We need to leave in 30 minutes for Golden Bridge. I want her to sleep because this week her sleep has been sporadic and disrupted by gas and teething. But mostly I just don't want this cozy moment to end. (although I am losing all feeling in fingers.)
As a few of my friends get close to their own due dates, and others work on creating more of these adorable little creatures we call babies, I'm finding that I'm already missing my newborn. Don't get me wrong-I am completely in love with Ruby as she is now, but that first 6 weeks of mega-cuddle sessions and teeny tiny clothes was yummy. Ok,I might be romanticizing it a bit. It was also challenging.
Now I'm amazed at this big girl who cam hold her head up (except when she's sleepy) and is rolling over (front to back. She's almost got it back to front too). She lights up the world with her big grins and I can see my grandmothers smile in her smile. She's strong, vocal, independent, and sweet. As much as I love her, I also really like her.
And thus endeth the mush of the day. She's awake and we need to get moving.
