So you know you are a mom when...

You know you are a mom when:
1. You get in your car and catch yourself singing along to Richard Marx's 1988 hit 'Right Here Waiting for you' on the soft rock radio station...

2. Bought a 'mom' swimsuit and was rocking it hardcore at your daughter's swim lessons. Flouncy skirt is extra..

3. You have not 1, but 2 poop stories that literately drove you drink on 2 different nights this week. My eyes are still semi-bleeding from the wars on poop I braved.

4. I have no idea who Snookie is.

Time is flying way too fast...LC will be 7 weeks on Monday. I braved my first week alone as a legit stay-at-home-mom and actually it went great. LC is sleeping pretty well now and she is growing like a weed! Mark my words, she is going to be bigger than Carson in a year--she's 2 inches longer and is eating 3oz more per feeding than Carson was at the same time. I keep trying to convince myself not to feel guilty that she's wearing all of Carson's handme-downs because the shoe will be on the other foot sooner than later. This little girl is a Stone for sure.

We have had photo sessions with both girls done recently. I cannot believe how much of a little girl Carson is becoming. Still channeling her daddy you think? She's just a sweetheart and just pure joy to be around. I adore her.


(I really love this new photographer we used with Carson, if you are looking for someone let me know! I highly recommend trying her. She was great for this age with Carson where they won't sit still for too long!)
