Earlier today I was sitting in the dentist's chair for my bi-annual cleaning. The hygienist went ahead and made my next appointment for August 12. I immediately thought, "Baby will be nearly a year old then; he'll be eleven months". I said to the hygienist, "Wow, August seems so far away". Because, 6 months doesn't sound that far, August sounds kind of far, but my baby being 11 months old seems really far away. And I tried to imagine what my life will be like in August, the next time I'm in that chair, when my baby is nearly a year old. Weird.
My sweet baby boy was born early in the morning on September 19, 2012. This is a place for me to share my journey through motherhood.

Baby Time
I have discovered that I now measure time by my baby's age.
