I can't believe my little bug is already two months old! When I was pregnant, two months seemed like a lifetime. Now, two months seems to have flown by. I can't believe how much my life has changed in these two short months. I really don't think there is any way to prepare for it, except to just jump in with both feet. It has been an exhilarating experience to say the least. I have had to give up many simple luxuries, like cleaning the house, doing the laundry, emailing people back, making dinner every night, having a nice conversation with Ian. But, I have also gained joys. It is amazing how I can go from feeling so tired and oh-so-frustrated to feeling on top of the world...just from a smile. Those smiles, kicks and funny faces (Connor knows how to stick out his tongue...taught to him by his wonderful parents) are what keeps me going.

I never thought I would stop caring about spit up being all over me (no point in changing my shirt 100 times a day) and all over the house. Really, I have better things to do with my time...like count the number of sneezes Connor can do in a row (so far, he has topped out at five) or force toys upon him that he seems to have no interest in. My life has certainly changed, but I wouldn't change it back for anything. Plus, having a cute baby really does help!
