Oh boy.... cute pics, and lovely story.
As a mother of two girls myself, your middle paragraph had me smiling and nodding with every single word. No doubt, countless parents will read this and totally "get you". Mind you.... sleeping through at 11 weeks??? Wow..... you are spoiled! I had to wait 10.5 months!!!!!

I feel compelled to add my ten cents worth: just when you are sick to death of a certain problem and you're hoping for it to be all over very soon, here is my good/bad advice: it doesn't ever get better, it just changes. Yes, you WILL get over one problem, but it will be replaced by another one.

My girls are now 24 and 21 years old, and yet I STILL worry and have problems with them. Dang it, I guess it will NEVER end. Parenthood, apparently, is a life sentence of love/hate (or at least of love/problems).

Work on loving as much of it as you can. It is here to stay.
