Remember all those posts where I complained about being pregnant? Turns out that situation resulted in a beautiful baby girl. My sweet Jane Carroll was born on January 27 at 7:26am. Though I read during a few hours of contractions at home, I’ve barely had a moment to brush my hair since she got here. I think she is distracting me on purpose to hold her reign as Best Hair in the family – as if I am any competition.
The only reading I have done since her arrival is from The Baby Book which points out to me on a daily basis that I do everything wrong, and everything is my fault. I believe I pointed that fact out to my mom when I was 13 without her having to read anything – I’m sure Jane will do the same for me in 13 years or so.
So bear with me loyal readers. Once I master bathing on a daily basis I might just be able to pick up a hobby or two again - and once I do I will snidely tell you about all of it.
