If You're Sleepy And You Know It, Clap Your Hands...

Since becoming a mother, I have wanted to write a blog for new moms, documenting my experiences so others wouldn’t copy my mistakes or so they could replicate what worked. 

My first month of motherhood could be summed up as “a haze.”  I don’t remember all of it.  I was a walking zombie. 

Everyone tries to prepare you for how little sleep you will get, but nothing, I mean NOTHING can prepare you.  Even reading this now, you’re probably thinking, “I can handle it.  I pulled plenty of all-nighters back in college.”  To this I say THINK AGAIN.  Nothing can prepare you. 

But, fear not!  It gets better!  Much better!  The first smiles and gurgles wake you up from that haze I mentioned before.  Suddenly, you realize what you already knew but were too tired to acknowledge- You have an amazing, happy, loving little human who adores you.  Every smile you send their way can make their day.  Every story you tell and book you read impacts them in a big way. 


I love being a mother!  I hope that you find my blog helpful, informative, funny at times, and I encourage you to comment and leave your own experiences.  I would love for this page to become a meeting of the minds of moms.
