First Time's a Charm

April 11, 2009

Since we have family and friends all over the world we thought we'd start a blog to post the hilarious stories and everyday life of new parents. I'm sure you are all waiting on pins and needles to hear how our life is going (well, maybe not exactly holding your breathe) but more like vaguely interested. Anyways...a way we go.

I'm not sure why they don't warn people about all of the trials and tribulations of first time parents but I'm hear to say a few things.

1. You will get puked on more than you could imagine. That's not the bad part. The bad part is that you don't think it's that disgusting. I could just wipe it off with a paper towel and think it's totally stink free and sterilized.

2. Breast feeding...well, if people told you about this, no woman would go down this road.

3. Baby poop...it's yellow. Really yellow. I thought this was pretty surprising and worth mentioning.

4. Personal hygiene...say goodbye to that once the baby arrives. Showers? Yeah right. Make-up? What are you kidding? Whip after you finally get to go to the bathroom? If you are lucky. You get the point.

With all of this, we couldn't be happier (well, maybe more sleep) with our new addition. Addison Lynn Moeller was born on March 15th, 2009 at 7 pounds 8 ounces. She is packing on weight like a freshmen at college.
