I just put a one year old to bed for the last time. And to prove to me how big she is, she spent the last 20 minutes before bed doing somersaults. How did my little baby get old enough to do somersaults??
I didn't like any of the leftovers we had on hand so I went to my favorite pizza place and got a salad to go. Totally hit the spot. Had to laugh as another woman came in right behind me and ordered the same thing, salad, no pizza.
I have a really busy weekend ahead and am trying to get myself psyched up for it. I have been cooped up in the house much of the last 2 weeks and am really excited to have lots of adult interaction in my near future!
H gave D his first bottle tonight. Just an ounce, but he took it no problem and is still nursing fine afterward. All that stress for nothing (so far).
I don't remember this much cluster feeding with C. D is generally pretty content during the day, but I feel like it's boob or crying in the evening. Normal?
I have to go to Akron Ohio next week. I was in Columbus two weeks ago. I don't know why my industry is so Ohio focused but I would like to go somewhere more exciting.
DD and I went to JoAnn's tonight and I got the right adhesive to finish the fabric pennant I'm making for DS's room. I'll let it dry for 24 hours and then hang it up Sunday. Then, his room is DONE! <) ALL clothes through size 6 months are washed, folded and put away. Closet is organized, diapers and cream are stocked, decorations are hung, and it's ready for a baby. All baby gear has been pulled from storage, washed and is ready. Feels good to have nearly everything done already.
All that's left is to wait for his custom name hat from Etsy to arrive and finish packing my hospital bag. DH thinks I've gone crazy but I don't care. I even have guest towels out on the guest bed for when my mom comes to watch DD while we're in the hospital. DH was like, "You know, your mom knows where the towels are. Stuff like that isn't necessary." YES IT IS DH! YES IT IS!
We went by the new house and they put a hearth down for the fireplace. We specifically requested no hearth and to run the hardwoods to the fireplace (it's gas). I'm livind bc this is a huge error. The floors better be underneath and they're going to have to redo the whole surround.
Backsplash is in! I initially wanted light gray matching grout but white won out
Every year or two DH spends a couple hours using a small kiddie paintbrush and paints our white backsplash grout white. It's a quick and easy way to freshen it up.
I don't know, guys. I just feel like utter shit. The first few days after surgery my incision was really fresh feeling, and sore. I got a nerve block in the OR before I woke up, so I know that took the edge off some of the pain. Then I started to feel better for a few days. My abdoman went from true pain to discomfort.
But hell. The past 48 hrs my sternum has been killing me. I think it must be the fat graft? Settling or something? I don't know. But I've had to pull the pain meds out again, and I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself, LOL. Pain meds and antibiotics are wrecking my stomach. I want to fast forward TWO weeks.
I also want to scoop up my little guy and really hold him.
I am thankful for so much. Especially that my cousin could do my surgery for me. But eff, I didn't know the recovery would hurt this much.

I'm a couple of drinks in and feel good. Lol. My baby has been so quiet all night. It made me nervous so I made H check on her. Still okay. What a difference. She has been so much happier. And I like her more than a little now! Phew! I am so far prepped for L's birthday party next week- I am impressed with myself!
I am watching random periscope videos, and DH is watching some video from when CDs were released of some guy going on about his CD collection. I'm drinking, but DH has no excuse.
We went out to dinner tonight and DD was the worst behaved she has ever been in a restaurant. I had to take her out for a bit because she was screaming and crying and making a scene. What happened to my sweet little girl?
I knocked the iron off to the ironing board and took a huge chunk out of our beautiful newly dark stained hardwood floors. Such a dingbat. I hate when I do stuff like that!!
After I had DD and lost a ton of weight I saved 2 pairs of lulu pants in a size 8 for when I got pregnant again and couldn't find them. 1 month and 1 day before EDD I just found them. Really knocking it out of the park lately.

Story of my life right now. Except my newborn hasn't been content for more than 30 minutes all day today. He only wants to be held, while I stand up. I am so freaking exhausted.
