I should be sleeping....

But instead Im reading song lyrics, old emails and browsing through pictures of Olivia's first few days. My neighbor across the street just had her first baby(yesterday). I baked the obligatory casserole for her freezer and took over a pair of knitted booties(thanks to my mom, who can actually knit...unlike me who apparently made 3 rows of something without forming a single actual stitch) She had a 10hr labor, and a 6lb baby and she up and around, looking thin and gorgeous and you'd NEVER know she'd just given birth...her tummy is completely flat, um HOW?!?!? HULLO I still looked 6months pregnant for WEEKS(if not months!) Her son is GORGEOUS! Like Olivia he is biracial(love this town, we have a huge population of interracial families) He has the same straight jet black hair that she did, and oh how I MISSED her as a newborn the second I layed eyes on him! I actually had a twinge of (omg I wanna'nother for the first time in a looooooooong time!) Here is a picture of Olivia at one hour old: Image hosted by Photobucket.com One day old: Image hosted by Photobucket.com Cant I just have her like that again for 5minutes? lol

I wish for those days too sometimes. I was in the supermarket yesterday and there was the most adorable baby, maybe 2-3 months old in the cart in front of me making little cooing sounds. I had this major wave of baby lust right then. Sigh.....
