The idea of a day to day blog sounds like such an easy task…in my head I envisioned being able to keep up with our lives and blog at the end of every day-man, was I wrong! Here it is technically “””day 8″”” of the blog and I’m just now sitting down with my cup of coffee to attempt to do a small recap of this past week. So with that being said I’m just going to create entries when I have time. or honestly just when I feel up to it

So this past weekend was jam packed full of good friends, good laughs, and good food.

Saturday-We went to Harry Ts for brunch and the FSU game (which was tragic) where I may have gotten carried away with bottomless champagne-thank God I was DD so many times while pregnant because now Steve’s paying it forward- Our next stop was Tailfins for a heartbreaking Auburn game and all I can say is we’re in for a long season with these two teams. Scarlett’s such a champ and the best little social butterfly.

Sunday- We went to Somer and Spencer’s house where we watched NFL –and by saying we watched football I mean everyone else watched football while I ate way too much food

Monday- Finally the end of a very busy weekend- Scarlett and I went to Christina’s house for a bit before going to Raf’s birthday dinner at Pazzo

Tuesday- Steve and I took miss priss to Landshark’s for lunch and then ventured to the Outlet’s where I didn’t buy a single thing for probably the first time in my life

Wednesday/Thursday- Honestly just straightening up the house and a ton of baby snuggles because I want to soak it all in because before I know it shes going to be crawling around the house and not wanting to sit still

Ok so that was boring for even me to read and I live it but I just wanted to do a quick recap just so when I look back months later I’ll remember how good of a baby I have that just let’s me carry her everywhere with us and is always such a good sport about it.

I’ve spent today packing for a quick little weekend trip to Georgia because when Steve gets off we’re going to head out to go surprise my mom after telling her that we couldn’t make it and that we would aim to come up another weekend

Sometime this week I will (hopefully) actually work on this blog-get good layout coded and set up if possible….IDK I havent really messed around on this site so I’m not sure what all is possible–

Day 1

So today was a very sad day for me……today I fed my sweet little formula for the first time. Steve and I have been talking about it for a while and I knew the time was coming I just didnt realize it would feel the way it did. As I was shaking her bottle I couldn’t help but feel like a terrible mother and I have absolutely NO idea why. I absolutely HATE breastfeeding and couldn’t wait to quit, so what was it that made me feel so terrible about switching over? I honestly feel like society shoves breastfeeding down your throat and makes you feel like less of a woman if you dont love it. Fed is best. We’re all just doing the best we can.

On top of the emotional day of switching over I also had to deal with my first carseat blowout…yikes. I always swore I wouldnt be able to clean up baby poop but it got all over my hands as I was grabbing her out of her carseat and it didn’t even bother me. Motherhood is crazy, yall.

My little still loves being out and about-I was beyond blessed with such a laid back baby. Mama had to run to the post office and make a huge fuss getting her out of the car and into a stroller just to run in for no more than two minutes then have to unload her back into the car and she didn’t make a peep just stared around at all of her new surroundings. We then met Jessica and Everly at World of Beer where I fed her (her new formula-ok I’ll stop bringing it up) while we were sweating on the patio-yet again not a peep. We walked around the commons and went to Craft Bar and babygirl was still just as content as she could be. Got to Jessica’s –where the blowout happened– and she finally got a little fussy but once she was all cleaned up all was right with the world again. We went to the high school for the game made it to halftime and we were both ready to tap out and go home to get into our jammies.

I’m sure I’ll get the hang of blogging-I’m really just doing this just to document our day to day life so I can look back on everything in years to come
