Thoughts on being a new mom

SO I'm sitting here while Noel is in the swing, going back and forth because she starts crying if she spits out her pacifier, sigh...

I thought I would write a little bit about how I'm feeling..

I do not like newborns, yep they are real cute but that's about as far I'll go.
I don't like not knowing what she needs/wants.
I don't like that they don't much at all.

This whole stage has been hard, although I knew that it was going to be before she was born. Don't get me wrong I love her to pieces but I have had numerous crying spells because she won't stop crying and I feel like a super crazy person. 

Well I better go get her because she's just starting to wake up in the car seat and if I wake her up she's usually much happier than if I wait til there's wailing from the car seat.

On another note, Noel is 7 weeks old today!! And I think she had given us some real smiles, so that is pretty fun ;-)

Welcome Noel Marie!

Noel Marie Wendzel was born on Christmas Day at 7am!!

So I started this post quite a while ago and just now am updating it, phew! Right now the lovely lady is sleeping and I'm sitting with the computer dimmed way down in bed as she is sleeping and has been for awhile, I'm really hoping she stays asleep for awhile and for most of the night as she's been really sleeping this afternoon.

I still can't quite believe that I had a Christmas baby, but I seriously love it!!! And its also so crazy that the little peanut is going to be one month old on Thursday!! What?! How does time go by so fast?

The birth went so amazingly well, I am still so thrilled about it! We got to stay at home and it was so amazing!! I couldn't have asked for anything better! Emily was great, Ruth was amazing and my mom was spectacular!! Jared did awesome as well, and was sooo helpful! Jared even cried when she was born, how precious!  I will write more about the whole birth story soon but right now I am going to post some super adorable pictures of Miss Noel :-) Enjoy!
