I had a baby, I have exams, my baby is demanding, life is hard. So it always is.

I would like to say here that I appreciate all the comments I get and read them all. I am horrible at not replying to comments. I have a peeve about spam answers, as in, if it would be a two word response that you would certainly not get offended not getting, then I don't want to type it and have it sit there on my page. I feel like I would be "comment boosting" by replying to every comment. So I reply to specific questions when I can (it is hard to type with a baby in your lap), and smile at the rest.

Also I would like to comment more. Sometimes I get on a roll and comment on several pieces. Other times I'm just fave-ing. I hate to traditionally fave and run but it is hard to type with a baby on your lap. Sometimes I manage to type out some barely coherent comment while he is trying to hit the keys with me. It is...simply easier to keep the mouse from him than to keep the keys away. Sometimes I can't even manage keeping the mouse out of reach. I've clicked on a lot of ads lately...did I mention how hard it is to type with a baby on your lap?


Oh, and for those of you wondering: Remy was born a couple weeks early just before thanksgiving. I had a difficult debilitating pregnancy. The birth was relatively easy. Most moms complain about being in labor for hours or even days. I was in labor for an hour. I pushed for six minutes. This brings on all new complications, but yeah, hardest thing I ever did but not all that drawn out.  He was very healthy, especially for being early. He was nearly 8lbs and had a larger head than most term babies. I hate to think how that would have gone if he was full term.

He is thriving. I am doing alright. He is very demanding but at least he sleeps 8 hours at night. Usually. Not last night.
