Babies, Babies, Babies!!

I love blogging.  My favorite part of blogging is reading the blogs of people who live all over the world and getting to know these people through their blogs.  I love having this kind of connection with people without actually having a connection to these people. 

Most of the blogs I follow are about Moms with kids or first time Moms or Moms to be.  I love it!  I love all things baby!  And I love hearing birth stories.  I think it's because newborn photos and baby photos always accompany a birth story.

Lately, I have been reading A LOT of birth stories!!  It seems like everyone is having babies right now!  And it also seems that there will be a whole lot more in the upcoming months and I can't wait!!  Even though I don't know any of you personally, it puts a HUGE smile on my face every time I read a birth story and see your pictures. 

And it makes me want another baby so badly.  I know my Baby Girl is still a baby.  But I also know that the time is flying by and I am already missing her 7 months ago, when she first looked up at me with those big blue eyes.  I am already missing her 5 months ago when she first started cooing.  I am already missing her 3 months ago and how she was just discovering her hands.  And I am already missing her 1 month ago when she first started saying Dada.

So much changes so quickly.  As much as I love every single little thing about this little Baby Girl, I want another one.  I want another first look, another first coo, another first Mama.  And all you baby havers are giving me the baby fever badly! 

I've got tons more firsts to have with my Baby Girl so for now I will be focusing on that.  I will keep reading all of your baby stories with a big smile on my face and I will keep waiting for the day when I can share my second or third baby story with all of you.  Until then...I will just have to enjoy my own baby story every day!

      Thank you so much! Yea it's strange 'getting to know' people via blogs but I always feel a better connection. I have even had random people email me with questions and advice. I love it!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,...

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...
