Another Good Day

We knew with the baby being born that we wouldn't really vacation this summer, so we are really just enjoying time at home. It still takes me awhile to get up and moving in the morning with Little Miss waking up in the night. It seems like she wants her quality time with mom around 4 am. Ha! We need to get that straightened around baby girl. I am not complaining. She is really doing well, I just miss my sleep. She is lasting about 4-5 hours through the night, which at 3 weeks is great.

Today we were having company so, I had intended on getting up earlier to get moving, but at her 4 am feeding last night, I felt like my kidney stones were acting up. I ended up getting Brad up to finish her feeding so I could get in a hot tub to try and get them to relax. It seemed to help a little. He finished her bottle and then since she hadn't had a diaper decided to empty out at 4 am and then was content, but wide awake. Needless to say we hung out and dosed off on the chair until 6:30, when I finally got back into bed as Brad was getting up for work. So I didn't move until 9:00

My friend Michelle and her kids arrived for our playdate arrived at 10:00. The kids have been looking forward to us getting together. Michelle and I usually scrapbook everytime we get together, but today we just hung out and caught up with each other. Since I am out of the loop at school, she keeps me up to date with everyone. We had such a nice visit. Thank you for stopping by. It was great to see you.

nice it is to hold a little one again

Later in the afternoon, I needed a few things from the store, so I decided to pack up all 3 kids and venture out for my first time alone. Kamryn slept the whole time, and the older girls listened really well through the store. I was very proud of them and our first outing was a success.
