Did I just say Diapie?

How is my daughter's wardrobe better than mine?  She's 7 weeks old people!  Check some of it out on the W Style page.

I think it's because the very lovely Claire Willner held a beautiful shower for Scarlet and I (pictures soon) and then my parents held a Jack and Jill shower at their house about two weeks later.

Scarlet was properly spoiled and it just made me so happy to see that not only pink had exploded onto the scene in the nursery but labels like jeanbourget and Burberry are now gracing her closet.  Can a mother get a little of that action?

I'm thrilled to be on the other side of these parties though.  It is STRESSFUL planning for these days.  What will I wear to be able to nurse?  What will she wear?  Is the outfit cute and age appropriate?  Is my outfit age appropriate?  What time will she need to feed?  How many diapers should I pack?  Will she poop in Great-Aunt Lola's arms?  Will she have explosive poop in Great-Aunt Lola's arms?!  How do I work the car seat again?  Why the heck do they make them so complicated?!  Where is the diapie bag?  Did I just say Diapie?  My brain is being sucked out of my nipples every three hours - how am I doing as a mommy?!?!?!?!

But in the end, nobody even cares if she has boogers coming out of her nose, or if she vomited on their shoulder.  They just want to hold her or coo at her - which is totally fine by me.  Thank you to everyone who came out to both parties!  We were so happy to see everyone and it was wonderful visiting.

My best friend's Mom holding Scarlet at the Jack and Jill shower.  LOVE YOU AUNTIE SYLVIA! OX

It's bedtime Scarlet, so go to sleeeeeeeeeeep. luv Mommy xoxo

The winning shot

All tucker'd out.  They say don't wake a sleeping baby but actually...full disclosure...Scarlet sleeps for the majority of the day and will usually scream her beautiful head off when she's awake.  Then I feed her and all is well.  ah the boob...

ONE MONTH OLD!  I can't even believe it.  She and I had a fun little photo shoot today and as I mentioned I couldn't get a good shot while she was alert because she was awake/upset.  I think that's why most of my pictures of her are when she's lights out - so peaceful, so serene.  

We've been out and about almost daily and she usually sleeps.  Everyone always says; 'What a good baby, so well behaved, so quiet', which she is, but man this little love bug has some pipes on her too!  I'll include a few shots of her in a not so happy state just so I can prove she's not a china doll.

I even brought in her cuddle bunny who had zero effect.

haha - FRUSTRATION!

Do they make these for adults?

Can we all just pause for a minute to look at these socks?  ummmmmmmmmmmm, it makes me shake my head.  I can't wait to get Scarlet's little toes in them!  She's still too small for these adorable socks from my sister-in-law Laura but soon cause already she's growing like a little sprout.  I can't believe she's already coming up on 1 month!
