Let me begin with a quick "wow!" It has been several months since my last post and so much has changed, I almost don't know where to begin. The biggest change is that I am no longer pregnant. That's right, folks! I am a proud momma to a beautiful six-month old little girl, Elena Danielle. She weighed in at a whopping 9.01 lbs on January 20, 2011. And let me tell you, it was no cake walk. She has completely turned my life upside down, but in the best way possible. There is nothing quite like being a mother. Whether it be the paniced feeling I experienced at the beginning knowing that I was responsible for another person's life (especially someone who couldn't help themself at all) or the awe I feel everyday when she wakes up and smiles at me as if I am the only person in the world she wants to see, I absolutely wouldn't trade this emotional roller coaster for anything! I know without a doubt I will love her everyday until the time comes when my heart stops beating...yes, it's that extreme.
As far as work goes, I am still working at the same company. This is still a thorn in my side, as it is definitely not my dream job, but it still helps pay the bills (which have increased considerably since my hospital stay) and
You're an amazing little momma!
