Then I'll just have to write a thousand words...

Sorry - no pictures, folks. Too f'n busy! And tired! Leah's getting her molars in, and has been waking up screaming several times a night. Fabulous!

It's turning to fall, and for the first time in quite a while, I am looking forward to the cooler weather. (Could it have anything to do with the fact that we no longer have central air? Hmmm...)

But what I want to know is when the fog of (new?) motherhood lifts. When do I get my whole brain back - all of it, even the part that is always thinking about my girl, no matter what else is going on? Some days the fog lifts and I almost forget I'm a mother, while other days it rolls in and settles into my head like our fat cats sinks onto a windowsill (before falling off on her kitty butt).

This is the one thing I wish I had known before having Leah. Not that it would have changed my mind about her, but I might have considered moving to a warmer climate before I jumped off into the deep end...
