sick baby + sick mama

the past week has been one of the craziest weeks since becoming a mommy! Sick baby + Sick mama = no bueno!!!

Not only did I have to use 4 sick days that I could have used to spend with Madison while we are both well, but seeing my poor little girl sick and being sick myself broke my heart. :(

but... we were NINJAS.. and made the best of our time at home together!

Happy 6 Months Madison!

Dear Madison,

Today you reached yet another milestone.. your half-year birthday!! I am so excited to see what you are going to do next.. sit up, crawl, say your first word.. But with every milestone, I am reminded how fast time is passing and how it feels like just yesterday when mommy and daddy arrived at the hospital excited to finally meet you for the first time.

Happy Six Months my happy beautiful baby girl!

Love,
Mama

Baby Food Diaries - The Beginning

Madison's six month is coming up on Monday! I can't believe it's been half a year already. Starting solids is going to be a new adventure and although we are excited, we are also nervous to start!! We're just barely getting the hang of our morning and night routines (which is nowhere near "routine" yet) and finding time to feed solids is definitely going to be a challenge. And on top of finding time, I really want to make my own baby food and avoid buying jar/pouch foods. So.. Challenge Accepted!

Baby Food Diaries is my attempt to document this journey into the world of solid feeding! :)
