So, T-baby is sleeping. She's my thumbsuckin' angel! It's cheesy but I love her more and more everyday. I get overwhelmed with emotion when I think of her. I take parenting SO seriously that it makes me freak out sometimes. In a world where girls are having babies left and right, I feel that the true job of parenting is being lost. These days it seems like having a baby is just something you do because the condom broke. Well, I've been planning my baby for years. No surprises here! Like I said, I take my responsibility as Teagan's mom pretty seriously. If we as parents don't raise her and teach her right, then who will? Some (but of course not all) of my early year goals as Teagan's mom are 1) read to her everyday 2) cuddle as much as possible 3)use big words so her vocabulary will be great 3) Try very hard to find alternate ways of saying "no" (because I very very very much dislike it when parents say "no" so much to their kids that the only word their kid likes to say is "no") 4) make my own baby food (minus nasty preservatives of store bought food) 5) breastfeed as long as possible 6) give her 1,000 kisses a day 7) Say "I Love You" a lot. The list goes on and on. I wish I had a couple of hours to write everything down. :)
