Things I've learned so far

Ella is now just a little over two weeks and with each day we learn something new. For example:
1. Just because something works one day, doesn't mean it'll work the next to quite down baby.
2. Built-in-bra tank tops are the best when it comes to feeding - quick and easy access.
3. You are lucky to have a two hour stretch of time to get something done. Sometimes, those stretches don't even come.
4. Cloth diapers - so far mixed reviews on this as I have not been as vigilant in trying them as I had hoped. The moment I put one on, Ella has a tendency to pee which wakes her back up and the cycle starts all over. Disposables are certainly much easier but we have already dealt with a bit of diaper rash - thank goodness for Desitin. We have been trying cloth in between which helps with the diaper rash. The jury is still out on how this will work.
5. Everything is on baby time and not sure where the hours go. Getting out of the house requires more time but the car seat, the car, and the stroller all work like magic in getting Ella to fall asleep.
6. There is nothing better than seeing Ella content.
