The library down the street (a 15minute walk) has baby time at 1030. No min age on the website. Would it be weird to go to this today? She is too little to benefit from stories or whatever they do there, but we both could get out of the house!
Go check it out! Always good to get out for a bit!
Today is Wife's first day back to work so it's just me and Jake. And the dogs. And the cats. He's still sleeping. He was up a lot last night. I don't even think anything of it anymore. He wasn't always hungry. He just wanted to be held. He's been asleep for 3 hours now so I should probably be asleep but I just took him out of his crib to hold him bc I missed him... I notice he had some spit bubbles on his lips. Does anyone else have that?
On a side note, I'm really thankful for insurance. I got the explanation of benefits email from my insurance for Jake's birth, it's almost $40,000 and I can't see the anesthesiologist fees yet. I only owe $1,150. Birthing a baby is expensive!
2dumbdogs you led me to check my library and they have a baby story time each Wednesday at 11:30. I think I'll walk down on Wednesday to check it out! Thanks!

Do it. I plan on taking this one to some baby stuff once I take some time to look them up. I don't think its weird and you may make a new friend.
We have mom and baby yoga on Thursday i can't wait to show her off to the teacher (she also taught my prenatal yoga class so i haven't seen her since the end of July!)
I think we can handle 2 activities in the week....I hope!

I can't wait to see mine. W was special care status most of our stay. He roomed in but special care nurses assessed, did vitals, and he went to special care for antibiotics. So although he roomed in it will be billed special care
I can't wait to go to storytime! I used to do storytime at the library along with playtime, parachute play, toddler aerobics, and music time. I remember moms bringing really young babies. I think they can benefit from it even at this young age.

@happy anniversary!!! H hated having my mom here too. I explained that believe me she wouldn't be here if didn't need her so he was just grumpy but not rude (best he could do). I think they have trouble realizing how much of an adjustment this all is. Also, the socks made me laugh because how would you even figure that out!? I feel like W cries sometimes and I just stare at him with no idea what to do next. Maybe I'll check socks next time.

Apartment hunting sucks. Apartment hunting from 600 miles away sucks even more. I found the perfect rental, and the website said it'd be available the week before DH is supposed to start his job. Good schools, great neighborhood, etc. PERFECT!!! Called them this morning and was told it was taken. GAH.

Back to the drawing board...
When we moved from CT to FL we used a real estate agent to help us find an apartment. She didn't charge us anything bc the apartment complex paid her a finders fee. She went to the complexes and toured them and took her own pix. It was really helpful!

This was just for an induction, c section and 5 days in the hospital. Healthcare in America is so messed up.
skinandbones DS has been getting a lot more tv and phone tine since DD was born. It's the easiest way to keep him entertained whilet I'm feeding DD. When she's napping, I try to do on on one stuff with him - play with toys inside or go outside for a bit (I take the baby monitor). I figure that's the best I can do until DD is older.
AW moment- I go back to work in a week. That stinks all by itself. Then I found out my favorite coffee shop around the corner from our house is closing for good this Saturday. It makes an amazing coffee called a Cafe D'Orleans. A large was only 2.50. It's going to make going back to work even harder without it.

MIL and DD are off to her house for the rest of the day. But before they left, she folded and put away all the kids clothes for me. I love her. Now, I'm gonna nap with DS and then get ready for the bf'ing hospital support group tonight. Then we'll do grocery shopping on the way home.
Poor Tori...mommy spilled coffee on her blanket while nursing. Good thing she makes sure mommy never gets to drink it while it is hot.
wait, coffee is supposed to be hot and not Luke-warm/cold? Hmm....Maybe the baby brain made me forget that fact, it's been a while since I drank hot coffee....lol!

Ditto on tv/devices doing more parenting then I would like...
I need the colic/witching stage to be over already so I can get them out and active more after school. It's just hard when the baby starts crying right when they get home :/

Car window repair ended up costing $330 and 2 hours with a newborn in the waiting area. O did really well but I was annoyed.
The neurosurgeon said it doesn't look like his head plates have fused prematurely he just has a lumpy head. She wants to see him back in 2 months just to make sure everything is remolding naturally.
You guys. Has anyone tried the cap'n crunch delights from taco bell?? If not, go now. I may have rewarded myself for the stressful day and eaten 8. I will eat the other 4 before H gets home to get rid of the evidence.

We need to get out of the house! After finally stretching her feedings to 2 to 3 hours over the weekend, we're back to almost hourly. I think a walk may be just what we need. And hopefully we can push out the next feed!

Pest control took care of THREE active wasp nests. One of which probably had over 300 wasps in it. A 2nd was likely the same and the 3rd was smaller. Gross gross gross. DS1 is at preschool. I'm thinking about a nap but e is going to wake up soon.
My child is a terror after motn feedings. She does not understand how to poop, which I know must be very distressing. But must she violently kick me in the stomach and try to claw my boobs off EVERY time?!?!

DH is away for work until friday so my mom is staying with me. Im grateful to have the help but not looking forward to being the solo parent for the week while DH gets 4 nights of uninterrupted sleep... I could definitely not manage two dogs and L without help but my mom can be a bit much sometime
