Things have changed again. I am no longer in a strange new place supporting my husbands dreams of becoming a physician. I am in a very familiar place, my mom's house in Utah. However, Brady is not here... he is in Hawaii. Don't you just feel so bad for him hehe. He will be there all this month. He has several other rotations away from me and the baby, but will be joining us here in November. We should be here till May and then on to Residency. Not sure where that will be yet. Maybe Hawaii? The little girl is growing fast. She is grabbing at toys and bringing them to her face, rolling over from her back to her belly, smiling and laughing and is just so dang cute! I do feel bad for Brady because he is not here to see her every day like I am.

Things are going well!

Aurora had her two month doctor visit and she is healthy and growing. I am not a fan of watching her get shots, but who would be. She is in the 50th percentile for weight, length, and head circumference. She is now 10 pounds 14 ounces. I am starting to get her into some 3-6 month outfits. She is smiling when you smile at her now which is wonderful for me! She sleeps for at least 5 hours in a row every night so I am not feeling so crazy and feel a lot more love for her. July will be our last month in Wyoming so I need to get the house packed up and ready to store. I will be staying with my mom in Utah for the next year. Brady has some away rotations but will join us there later this year. Life is always changing and I just keep growing and learning!

Wow! The hardest thing ever!

I had no idea that being a new mom was this hard. I have never gotten so little sleep in all my life. I have never fallen asleep so easily when I finally do get sleep. I can't believe that there are people who have more than one kid. Or that there are single parents. There is no way I could do this without my husband's help. Also, a big thanks to my and Brady's families for their support in a billion ways. I will be so glad to move closer to my family for the next school year. I can't believe I was actually considering staying here in Wyoming by myself while Brady went on away rotations. What a big life changer this little darling has been. I am truly amazed at mothers and their devotion to and sacrifice for their kids.
