Zyler is a Half-Year Old Today

I will take a posting lead from a friend and post my life's briefest highlights.
  • I turned 30 on June 16. There were presents. There was red velvet yummy cake. (Thanks, M-I-L!)
  • I had my womanly physical last week with the midwife, Ann, who delivered Zyler. She is awesome... All is well. She gave me some other birth control options to consider. I am not considering anything hormonal.
  • I finally feel like a "Mom."
  • I love motherhood.
  • I hate working 40 hours and seeing so little of Zy during the week. Would love to work less, but keep working.
  • Zyler is doing great. Not an illness to speak of. Still 100% Mommy Milk.
  • I still pump while away from Zyler. Pumping still sucks. :) But I can't stop.
  • Zyler is awake once or sometimes none at nights. It's wonderful. I'm still tired, but feel human again!
  • I cannot believe it's been 6 months. I can remember those days of labor and the birth vividly. My just-about-natural birth = totally empowering.
