My mood while writing this blog: tired...

Mariah is now four months old! She weighs 15 pounds, can you believe it!? She is a big baby. She has been constitpated for the past few weeks so we are giving her daily juice to regulate her. She is 26 inches tall and I bet she is going to be taller than me one day. (I'm 5'4)

She is rolling over and blabbling more and more. She outgrew her size zero (0) shoe and is even growing out of her size 1-2 diapers. She is staying awake a lot longer now which makes it harder but she is still precious. She sleeps well at night but wakes up once to feed. Patrick just bought her a highchair so we are set for her to start eating soilds in a few months.

I am learning to adjust to taking care of Mariah on my own while patrick is at work. Its getting easier but of course I still crave my breaks once in awhile. They say having children can hinder the relationship and even though Patrick and I fight, I'm glad it hasn't gotten too bad. I just feel horrible because I am always cranky! I always take my anger out on him because I can't (and absoutley won't) take it out on Mariah. I'm working on my mood and hopefully it gets better.
