Time for mommy

I suppose I knew what I was getting myself into when I decided I wanted children and don't get me wrong, I have zero regret! I love every moment that I get to spend with my bunny, every second actually. I've just been thinking about the short time that bunny has been here and all the changes that I've already been through. In fact I just put his majesty down moments ago and I can hear him beginning to lose it in his crib. Do I get him or let him soothe himself? and if I run and get him now, will he ever just nap in his crib? AGH!!! my baby. He's a maniac!
half an hour later and I'm back on the blog. I suppose I'm trying to figure it all out still. When do I do this? when do I do that?

blah blah blah...

You know, I'm a new mom, what can I say? I need to learn balance and I will so I'm not terribly worried. I'm venting and wishing for a hot bath and a good book, that's all.

memories and happiness...

My memories, heavy on my mind today. My little bunny is growing and changing so quickly and I'm changing too. I'm thinking about the day I met this little gift and how it felt like it was all some kind of wonderful dream.

Bunny hair and skin woes...

My baby's getting big! My beautiful baby bunny is stronger and stronger everyday and smarter and cuter. His hair is also getting longer and his poor little head has been covered in cradle cap. What to do??? well, I did a little investigation and hit up some other blogs for my answers. "My brown baby" is a particularly helpful blog. So slathering it on, I got to work immediately with a 5 drops of tea tree oil and some extra virgin coconut oil. You know what? it worked! well, sort of.
The flakes started peeling up without damaging bunny's fragile little scalp and hair. So, I followed it up with some sweet almond oil with vitamin e and he patiently endured the steps. This morning when he awoke I noticed a few little flakes had reappeared but I just added more oil to his scalp and it seemed to help. I swear, I'm going to get this under control!
Eczema, he's got it, I don't like it and I'm sure he doesn't either. I'm currently applying pure shea butter 3 times a day. We will see how that goes...
