postheadericon A Good Night’s Sleep

I guess it comes with the territory that you will ultimately miss every good night sleep once you become a mother. Before thinking about completing 8 long hours of sleep each night, you have to put your little one’s welfare first and check whether she is sleeping quite well or needs a diaper change or if she will be waking up in the wee hours of the morning and will coerce you to play with her at 4am. If it happens that your baby is having a sound sleep one night, you still have to wake up every too often to feed her and make sure she won’t wake and have the goodnight sleep that she needs. My baby love is still on her newborn up to 4months journey, meaning, she should have to be fed at every two(2) or three(3) hours which means, you know already (lack of sleep for mom).

Oh well, maybe you can always make up for the lack of sleep during nap time, maybe. Or I think it is just a matter of time management. Good luck first-time mommy(ies) like me! Whew!

postheadericon Moving Here

(Guest post written by my buddy Royce Heath)

When I moved here my parents helped me buy a house so I wouldn’t have to blow so much money on rent, that was super nice of them. They even made me get a Louisiana ADT home security system because they were worried about me being a single girl in a big house by myself but I thought that was overkill, that is, until I got broken into. Thankfully I wasn’t at home (I was at the library studying for the BAR) but when the police called to tell me my alarm had been tripped I felt totally violated. I have since gotten a roommate and that makes me feel safer and we’ve got a big old dog who also keeps me calm. I never knew living alone would be such a hair raiser but at the end of the day I prefer this to living at my parents’ house, bar none. I like my independence and being able to come and go as I please and I’m old enough it makes sense to give up apartment living. I even saved money on my home with an FHA loan.

postheadericon Fresh Flowers for Any Occasion

If you want to personally pick the kind of flowers that you will give, then you can visit your favorite
flower shop and choose among the variety of flowers that are available. You can even talk to the florist and discuss your preferred flower arrangement. If, however, you are looking for a more convenient way of giving fresh flowers to your loved ones, visiting online flower shops would be the best option. They offer the same services that commercial flower shops offer. Most of them also deliver flowers for free. With the variety of flowers that they offer, you will surely find the ones that will best express what you feel.

Fresh flowers can also add beauty to any room. There are some additives for cut flowers that you can use to extend the viability of flowers. Your room would surely smell good and appear more beautiful with the presence of fresh flowers.

What is great about giving flowers as gift is that you can give them on any occasion. And nothing can make a woman feel special than by giving them a bouquet of flowers not just during important occasions but most importantly even during ordinary days. So if there’s an important occasion coming up like birthdays or anniversaries, giving fresh flowers would be an excellent choice.

postheadericon A Mom’s Christmas Wish List

Of course, being a new mom and all, I was rather excited to make my very first Christmas shopping for the little one. I would probably get as much pink stuff I can get my hands into for my little princess. But more than the material things, what I really want for Christmas is to make it memorable for the little one as this will be her very first. I will make sure to document it as much as I can so she will remember her very first Christmas celebration through the detailed photographs. I will create a new family tradition that we will be doing every year until the little girl is 15 or even 30. That will make the journey's most wonderful time of the year's celebration more meaningful and something she will always look forward to with much anticipation. Oh, well, it couldn’t help if I can receive some little gifts from Santa, too, this new mom will be delighted to open some presents on Christmas, too, right?
