7 Month Stretch

Well, things are getting better for me as a mother. I think the first week after Clare was born, not only was I physcially drained, but I think emotionally I wasn't ready to have a baby. I know I had post-partum depression for awhile. But now that she's older and I've had more experience with her, I feel better. More confident in my mothering skills and I think that makes her feel better too.

So, what has Clare been up to lately? Well, scooting in her middle name now. She's in one place and another the next. It's only a matter of time before she starts crawling.

 

She's also got 2 teeth!  The teething process wasn't too bad, but it was a long one.

Today, she sat up on her own. It's a first caught on camera!
