The last 3ish weeks have been full of learning experiences.
1. When I know I'm in labor, I shouldn't pretend like I'm not. Embrace it. Don't go into work to finish a few things and end up having my boss take me to the hospital. Not a good idea.
2. Epidurals are heaven sent. I don't know how people give birth without them. Truly.
3. When people say "Sleep when baby sleeps," they mean it. Otherwise, you will never sleep.
4. I can in fact function on very little sleep. I may not be emotionally stable or very pleasant, but I can actually do it. Molly loves her sleep, though. Just like her mom.
5. Success and productivity have taken on new meanings. Getting showered and bathing Molly and making a meal is a successful day. Actually, just getting me showered is a successful day.
6. It's ok to still be a little crazy after having a baby. Pregnancy hormones make you crazy...and delivering the baby makes you even more crazy. It's cool to cry.
It's all 100% worth it when you get to hang out with this all day:

You are very right... Motherhood is anything but easy, but SOoooo worth it when you see your kids each and every day.
I love those toes! Now, how can we convince her that she wants to hold her hands still for a picture??
SHE IS SO CUTE!!! Post pregnancy hormones... yay...
What adorable pictures! She's getting cuter, Jeff and Jenny. Just thought I'd warn you. I miss being there!
