first night home with baby
The first night home with my baby girl is always a special one. I love waking up to her and her squealing laughter, watching my beautiful baby girl grow into an adorable little girl, and just going to sleep with her, snuggled up to me, watching her sleep from my shoulder.
The morning after is usually one of the most memorable mornings of my life. I love waking up to see our beautiful girl’s sweet little face and listen to her breathing as she sleeps. And then I love waking up to see her face and hear her voice as she learns to talk, and hear her laugh, and watch her eyes open when she finally starts her day. It is the best day of my life.
Sometimes it feels like our life on the island is a dream. After all, we have no idea what life is like, or what our next meal is going to be. I’ve tried to imagine a different life out on the island, one where my sister is not so absent, and I’m not the only one who’s got a pet monkey and a pet dog.
I’ve read that if you are a baby for very long time, you can start to forget your own name. The same thing happens with babies, but it doesn’t happen so much as a strange, unsettling feeling that I have had for the past few months. When baby Alex is finally able to speak again, I know it was not all my imagination.
I am glad that this is the case because it means that Im not the only one having baby trouble. My poor baby sister is having an all-day, all-night feeding right now. Because nobody is getting any sleep.
How does this happen? I have two babies, one is a toddler and the other is two months old. I had a daughter, and I have a son. I guess I had a lot of sleep, which is why I was so cranky when I got home. And now I have a toddler and a baby. But I can still be cranky when I get home because I have a baby.
I’ve had two babies, and I’ve had one when I was about 2 1/2, and I had a girl when I was about 4 1/2. I had more sleep then I did when I had a baby because I was able to get a bit more rest. And now I have a toddler and a baby. But I can still be cranky when I get home because I have a baby.
I used to be the type of person who would just get up and go to bed and read a book and not think about it again until it was time to get up. Now I read a book when I get home from work and I don’t think about it until I get home. I guess that’s just another way to say that my brain thinks I’m tired when I’m not, and I’m not really.
The same goes for people with new babies, but I guess that’s a different story entirely.
People who have a new baby are very often exhausted, and tired people tend to be cranky. You also don’t have to be cranky to be tired, you just need the right amount of fatigue. Sometimes it’s hard to say exactly what is the right amount of tiredness. I feel like I have a lot more tiredness and crankiness than I used to do.
