Breastfeeding 101

I bet you all were hoping for a hot picture of me breastfeeding.... Ain't gonna happen, but I ( a lot like Carlee H.) read way too much about way too much online. I have been reading about breastfeeding - how many extra calories I need, signs of the baby getting enough (you always question yourself), things I should or shouldn't be eating- you get the picture. Any how, I stumbled across this little quiz:
Feel free to test yourself. Anyway, I tested myself and here was their comment to me:

You did not do very well and you may want to read more about breastfeeding. Keep in mind that doesn't necessarily mean that your child is not breastfeeding effectively though.

I thought that I knew a lot about breastfeeding. One child survived- Oh well- it made me laugh.
Also, here are some new pictures of baby girl.

Welcome to the World Molly!!

We welcomed little Molly Pearl into our lives on April 8th (yes her actual due date!) She came very, very fast and it was a pretty uneventful labor and delivery. She was 21 inches and 8 lbs 6 oz- the exact same size as Owen- crazy!!!
We are slowly adjusting to life. It is a good thing that you forget how crazy you feel and how sleep deprived you become- or else you would never have any more kids!!!
We feel lucky and blessed to have her and Owen is learning that she is here to stay. Here are some pictures- I will post more as I become more settled in.
Love you all and appreciate all the support and help.
