Dear Santa:

If I were going to send Santa a Christmas wishlist, or a letter, it would read something like this:

Dear Santy-Clause,

All I want for Christmas is a full night of sleep. Just one night of glorious, uninterrupted, sleep. I don't want a new Coach purse, or boots, or new clothes. Just sleep.

Well, I'd also like to fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans again. Preferably before Christmas Day. Can you make that happen?

Thanks!
One exhausted, chubby mama

Gawd, I'm exhausted. My kid decided she only wanted to sleep from 1:30 am-2:15 am last night. What the shit is that about?!! Now, I'm walking around (okay, sitting on my couch) like a zombie, and she's snoozing away. Oh, and that advice they give you to "sleep when the baby sleeps, nap when the baby naps"? Complete bullshit. I just can't turn my brain off. Bullshit, I tell ya.

/rant over.

Welcome Cora Grace :)

Sorry it's been so long! I know you are all dying to know where I've been...Well, I've been having a baby! I won't bore you with the details, the story gets quite long winded, but Cora Grace entered the world on October 9th, 2012 at 7:20 pm. She weighed 6lbs, 2oz and was 19 inches long. She is pure baby perfection. I never thought I could feel so much love for such a little person, but there it is. Everything is going well so far, she eats, sleeps and poops, lol, so we're right on track. We couldn't be happier. 

 Now, for the goods:

This isn't funny anymore.

Dear Baby,

Please come out now. I'd really like the ability to roll over without huffing and puffing, stand up without grunting, and pee without having to lean forward to "get it all out".

With love,
Your exhausted mom to be
