i came across this blog and i found this article to be 100% spot on!!! my biggest complaint and fear as a new mom was how would i ever get anything done ever again?!?!? i was always so on top of everything from birthdays, cooking dinner, clean house, staying in touch with people and taking care of myself, but that all went out the door when we brought bowie home. the 2nd month has proven to get easier, but i have also learned to lighten up on myself. some days i feel like super mom when the baby is clean, fed, happy, i cooked dinner, took a shower and the house is semi-clean. then other days i feel like the only thing i accomplished is the baby is alive and fed. you would think as a stay at home mom i should have more time to do stuff, but let me tell you it is hard! and every day is unpredictable based on bowie's needs and mood. this was a great read and i recommend it for any new mom, check it out here

That is a great read and puts things into perspective. I think you have already figured this out though. It's tough not to compare your old life to your new life or what you could accomplish in a day. That's all over for a while and your daily accomplishment today is a happy healthy Bowie and that she is!!!!!
