It is working!

So I have been trying to figure out this whole be-a-good-mom thing and get things done around the house, stay on top of my homework, find time to eat right and exercise and not go crazy. It seems to be working!

Today Cade and I went for an early morning walk, took a nap together, made thank you notes and sent them out, filled in his baby book, showered, dressed and even put make-up on, made a dentist appointment for me, a hair cut appointment for Chris, finished my work for my online class (two hours early I might add) and everyone is happy and fed.

Everyday gets easier and Cade will now take a nap in his swing after he falls asleep nursing so it helps me get things done! Life is going well :)

As a side note: Cade is still growing and now wears 6 months clothes! He has almost rolled from his back to his belly twice now and eats his hands daily. He is still working on holding onto and getting a toy to his mouth, but almost there. He smiles and laughs at almost everything and is generally a happy baby. He and Papa spend four nights a week together while I work now and have established their own routine that works well for them. They play guitar, watch football and go for a walk every night. Cade goes to sleep right at bedtime for him and they are both happy....therefore, I am happy.
