Take 10

Trevin just sat down next to me and I informed him that I'm blogging, he laughed and said he wouldn't hold his breath. Why you might ask, because since Addie was born I have attempted to blog about a million times and every time I either lose interest or get distracted with something else and never get past the first paragraph so I better go fast before I lose interest.

Addie is 8 weeks old today and they have been the fastest, hardest, but best 8 weeks of our little family's life. Our little girl has been labeled by our doctor and others who see her as a "fussy" baby. The pediatrician actually called her a mother killer due to her extreme high maintenance personality. But as Trevin points out, what do you expect she is her mother's daughter. She has made a lot of progress in the past couple weeks though. Addie has gone from needing to be held 24/7 to sleeping 4 hour stretches at night sometimes. She also doesn't cry for hours either. Trevin and I are slowly regaining our sanity after what has been a trying month. And our little girl gets cuter and cuter every day. She has started smiling a lot, rolled over (I think it was a fluke since she hasn't done it again yet), and LOVES bath time-backstroke is her specialty right now.

Besides learning how to be parents Trevin and I are enjoying the summer after what has been a stressful spring. Addie was born during finals week for Trevin which made studying and focusing on those a challenge for him. As soon as finals were over Trev started hard core studying for the MCAT which he took May 20th and then he submitted all his applications for medical school. Now that all that stress is over we are just relaxing. We are looking forward to Trevin's family reunion at Bear Lake and a week in Colorado which includes a Rockies game we just bought tickets to.

And if you just made it through this whole boring post you must be my mother....actually I don't think she even reads this blog. Oh well I did it, finally blogged, its a start.
