Strawberry Shortcake

Here's Zoe in the strawberry outfit that Auntie Kristen sent. I LOVE it! You know me and strawberries. It's hard to find cute strawberry stuff. I didn't think this outfit would be as cute as it is on her... comes with butt ruffle and strawberries all over. Why do I like it so much? It must be her personality. Nah, that can't be it!

For the last couple of days all I've done is hold her. She won't let me put her down for more than an hour, but usually only a half hour. The night before last I brought her to bed with me because I was so tired. She slept like a champ, and then I couldn't put her in her own bed last night either. I've started the trend that all my babies ended up taking. You know, the trend when you start wondering why in the world you spent money on a baby bed when they don't sleep in it?

This morning I was really desperate for a shower, so I popped her in front of the TV. Yes! I'm corrupting my child at 7.5 weeks old! The evil mommy habits are starting already. She was vibrating away watching Elmo's World so I left her there and got cleaned up. When I came back she was asleep. Woo hoo!! That lasted about 10 minutes.

So I picked her up and she had a poop that was a 6.3 on the richter scale. I had to change her clothes and everything. Then I held her some more, but I needed to type an email response so I put her on my bed for a minute. She voiced her disapproval of that arrangement, but when I was about to get up and get her again, I turned around and saw that she was asleep. This is how I'm able to blog... we'll see how long this lasts.

Woops, not long... there she goes again. By the way, the pumpkin hat is something Seth has been dying to put on her and I finally gave in.
