1 ) Sit, Hold, Snuggle your baby guilt- free. You cannot spoil them, and this is such a short season in your life.

2) Document : Document both the reality and the mess, as well as a few more posed photos of baby. Use what you have - DSLR, Camera Phone, Point and Shoot. Documenting means we are telling a story. Some things to snap pictures of : Baby Diapers hanging to dry on a clothesline, onesies spilling from a laundry basket, the toy that makes baby instantly stop crying, . If you are doing your baby's portrait yourself: get close to a window, natural lighting is best. Fill your frame with baby, and don't forget to snap photos of those tiny hands, feet, and rosebud mouths.

3) Breathe. The Newborn season only lasts 8 weeks. It all gets easier.

4) Take some videos. Don't save it for the crawling stage. Video your baby as she is right now.

5) Schedule Some Downtime for yourself, and follow through.

6) Encourage Sibling Bonding

7)Journal - as intricate or simple as you wish

8)Remember there are no rewards being handed out for self sufficiency.

9)Fill Yourself as You Fill Baby's Tummy

10) Back Up Those Photos

  • External Hard Drive

  • Amazon Prime Photo App

This episode is coming form the perspective of : you need to work, and you need your child to learn independently. we cover grades 1-5. I also stayed on a budget of $50 and under per grade.
