Friday's Five

In honor of my friend Bobbie who had her precious baby, Meghan, at 2:38 am while we were sleeping last night, here is my list of 5 things I wish I had known before bringing home a baby:

1. Sleep deprevation really means sleep deprevation. :-)
2. Babies dont always do everything by "the book." They didnt read it!
3. Breastfeeding doesnt always work for everyone and that is ok!
4. That just because I have a baby, I am not all of the sudden SuperMom. That confidence takes time to gain, but it does come.
5. Pray, Pray, Pray for that baby. Something I didnt do enough of with all of the overwhelming, exciting, new, scary things happening in our home. I know our first few months would have been easier if I had done more praying and less trying to figure everything out on my own.

Thank you, Lord for the blessing of babies!!

I love you Bobbie, Greg, and Meghan!!
