Happy new year!
Hope everyone had a safe and fun NYE celebration. We visited family. Molly and I sat insideall night keeping warm.
Honestly, I would have preferredto stay home and have a quiet new year celebration with my little family. But the families insisted on seeing little Molly. It was either visit them or have them come over. And any mommy or daddy of a newborn knows how upside down your home can be with a newborn. Lack of sleep equals lack of energy which results in little to no housework done. And, I can leave when I feel like.
Today Miss Mol put up a fight with each nap. Maybe her way of wanting to stay awake for her 5 week bday? Already trying to show mommy she's a big girl. And her being in a celebratory mood, she "christened" our blankets during a diaper change.
Unfortunately, this mama wasn't able to get nice newborn photos done. We didget the hospital photo but they spent minimal time and the photos weren't that great. I tried doing some on my own but never got her in the right mood at the right time. I was hoping for xmas the ed and send out greeting cards. Now, I want to get her 2 month photos done with a Valentines Day theme! I was thinking of making some Vday cards for family and friends.I'm hoping to take them myself. Wish me luck??
I have been browsing the web (pinterest and google images) for cute ideas and accessories. I have some ideas for headbands and bows. In case I'm unable to make the head piece I want, I just ordered some stuff called Girlie Glue to hold hair accessories on babys head without needing to clip onto baby hair or if baby doesn't have hair. Now Mol does have hair and before she was born, her daddy and I were guessing whose hair she would have: my coarse wavy unmanageable hair or his coarse curly hair, we both have dark brown almost black color hair. She surprised us with hair like Tio Bubba's! Fine, straight and medium brown! I tried butting bows in her hair but slip out as soon as I sit her up.
I'm looking forward to getting the "hair glue" in the mail! Ordered it at

I'll give a review when I try it out! Excited!
