My baby girl is fast asleep and maybe even snoring a little bit on my chest. My little miss Kaia has been my little miss fuss pot for the last week or so. Taking her out is always an adventure. We were out of town watching my husband coach highschool volley ball. Thank goodness for the “hooter hider” I am Kaia’s personal living pacifier. Erick gave me the heads up that we were in a particularly modest highschool. I guess the dress code rules for the girls were even more strict than usual. He suggested that maybe I go into one of the side rooms to breast feed Kaia. I was not having any of that. I secretly double dared anyone to come up to me and tell me to put my boob away while I fed my daughter and supported my husband. I would have whipped it out “hooter hider” or not. Lucky for them I was left alone to watch a bunch of screaming 16 year olds play volleyball while I pacified my baby.
Spending so much time at home makes me feel like I should be getting more done around the house. That is so not happening. I think that I get one big chore a day done and odds and ends. Now making dinner has been a struggle there is just no way that is happening. Especially after my day today Kaia ended up in her “heart to heart” sling while I filled out thank you cards and occasionally did the rock step.
Kaia tricked me; she slept for three hours in a row for two nights. Erick dared to say the words “oh maybe this is the start of sleeping longer”. Doh....last night she slept for one and a half hours at the longest. Up down up down up down. Insert a giant sigh here. I’m gonna go finnish enjoying this cuddle with my baby girl.....
You are doing a GREAT job Tiffy, and don't you ever feel other wise. The first couple months are the hardest, she's a growing girl and you've got what she needs :).
ReplyDeleteAs for the house-- Bah, I still have days like that... two years later. It's life.
