Today is the fourth day having the baby. Today was not that hard because i am now used to carrying the baby around and im used to having it in my arms. Im still having a hard time opening my locker and while im at my desk flipping pages and writing notes in class. Sometimes my one arm gets numb because the baby is always in that hand.

Today was the third day having a baby. Each day seems to be getting harder and harder having to carry to the baby around. While im at my locker its hard to do the combination and grab books with the baby in my hands. Having to carry the baby around for half th day gets pretty tiring. Doing this project makes me realize how much responsibilty there is when you have a child or children.

Today was the second day having to carry a baby around. Having the responsible of carrying the baby has showed me to respect the baby and is making me more responsible of the baby. Before i could carry books and other things in both hands now i have to go through the trouble of grabbing and doing things with only one hand because the baby is being held in the other hand. Carrying around the baby has been really tiring. Having to carry the baby made me realize how much work it is to have a child.

Today was the first day that i got to carry around a life size baby. I have held one of my baby relatives before but not for 2 hours straight. After 20 minutes of holding the baby my arms felt like they were on fire and felt like they weighed 50 pounds each arm. While i was working in each class the baby was in my arms and it was hard to do my work because the baby was always in the way of all my work. while i was carrying the baby around school, i thought of all the problems that were going to occur
