So Daniel's first 100 days have come and gone and this Saturday he'll officially be four months old! (see his new tricks in the video below!) I have decided that the key to being a great parent is just having an easy baby that makes you look good. Daniel is as delightful in spirit as I could have ever hoped for. He hardly cries- only if tired or hungry. His Daddy is so enthralled with him that I'm falling in love with my husband all over again in a brand new way! its so wonderful! He blessed baby D two weeks ago- it was one of the sweetest moments of my life!
Painting- I've actually been painting quite a bit during nap times and in the evening and have found that it actually helps to have a baby when it comes to painting. I used to stare at a painting all day-willing it to look right. Now, I have to take breaks and step back. It helps me not to ruin the good parts and to see solutions I missed.
Life is good right now. Summer is glorious in Oregon and my house is almost finished! It truly was a gift to live with my in laws while adjusting to parenthood. I've had so much help its been wonderful. My endlessly patient in-laws have earned a soft place in heaven for letting us confinescate their garage for our furniture and for feeding us and housing us. I can truly say we will miss having them around us so much! I love seeing how much my mother in law loves our baby. I've posted recent and older pictures! -Shari
