New Mom Advice

While at the baby shower, each person wrote down some new mom advice.

Some good ones included:

-Keep a journal
-Wash under fat folds
-Buy a good camera
-Whatever attitude you have (about anything) your children will mirror. So beware.
-The best parenting advice comes from the scriptures, Ensign, Holy Ghost and Heavenly Father so dont read Parenting magazines.
-Let it go. Just let it go, it's not worth it!
-If you need medication, use it.
-Beware of expectations, they only bring disappointment.
-Boys are hyper (usually)and it is normal. Dont worry too much about lost teeth, broken bones, and blood. It will all heal.
- Imagine your child as who he will someday become, even during tantrums.
- Triple paste- the best diaper rash ointment

I was hoping you could give me some New Mom advice too.

Baby Shower!!!

A friend from church threw me a baby shower. She invited all of the ladies I knew and all of the girls I taught in primary. It was so fun having a baby shower with kids there. They have been such a big part of the excitement as one class of 8 year olds would pray and fast for me to get pregnant! They put on a skit at the end of the shower about us having our little boy.
