Life as I know it...
has changed.No more getting in the car and running off. It's now a choreographed process of checking on baby's diaper, working around her feeding schedule OR packing a bottle, checking the contents of the baby bag (diapers, change of clothes, bottles, blanket, wipes), strapping her to the baby seat, AND then we go.
There's also not as much "me time". Maybe this will change when she gets a little older but right now there's not much time for me to hang out, kill monsters on the PC, surf the web, cruise around in the Miata, or watch TV.
I don't mind. I knew what I was getting into. I knew I would not have much time for me. I knew it'd be all about baby. I think it is to my advantage I became a parent later versus in my 20's or 30's. If I'd been a dad sooner I might have resented the baby for cutting into "me time".
She's just so cool to watch. Sometimes I catch myself watching her in endless facination. Such small perfectly formed feet & hands. Complete with teeny tiny nails that need to be trimmed.
And when she smiles!! Priceless!! It's the best!
