Swim diapers DO hold poop

If you have ever wondered how well a swim diaper actually holds poop, I can now tell you (and trust me I wish I couldn't)!

I need to back up a little though and tell you about our week so far! I soaked up the weekend, because I knew that come Monday it was just going to be the three of us. I will be very honest, Monday was the first day that I was completley on my OWN, from the time they rise until the time they go to bed. No MDO, no Vivienne's house, no midafternoon visit from Mimi and Papa, and no daddy at 5:30! I have been very spoiled!

I was SO tired on Monday morning. McKinley woke up at 2 and then again at 5:30. I don't like the 5:30 wake ups because I know that by time I nurse her and put her back down, its time for Wyatt to be getting up. At 6:30 the whole house was awake! We had a great morning, nice play date at Carters, lunch with daddy and then a wonderful nap for both babies. After naps we went out to play in the baby pool and water table and this is where the day started to fall apart. We played for a while and Wyatt really loved it! McKinley, not so much! She wanted to eat, then didn't want to eat, she wanted to sleep but then didn't want to sleep. My aunt was nice enough to bring us dinner, which got us out of the pool. It was nice to have an extra hand! This is when I discovered the Wyatt had pooped at some point while outside. GREAT! It was everywhere! The fussy baby was in good hands, I cleaned up Wyatt, got him some dinner and then we took turns eating and keeping McKinley happy. Let me just say, it is HARD to get both ready for bed and put down alone, at this stage anyway!! She likes to be held a certain way at night and eat when he needs a bath and bed! I just had to let her cry while I put wyatt down. It was an adventure!!

All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come? - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

We all need friends

I remember almost a year ago when a good friend of mine invited me to a lunch group, Friday's at noon. At that time in my life I needed it! I needed to get out and meet new friends, other ladies with children about the same age, going through the same thing. This was a life saver for me. I am not a very outgoing person and it's hard to make friends when you don't have a full time job. Long story made short.... I made some GREAT friends in that group. As all good things to do though, things changed, people moved on and life became a little crazy for all of us. So the lunch group is starting up again and even though some people have left, we have some new faces to get to know! Wednesday a couple of us went out for a ladies night out and it was great! Two new people for me to get to know and I feel like I have made two new life long friends. It's so refreshing to just have a night out with the ladies and yes, we may spend the whole night talking about our babies and what t...

First trip to the ER

Image
Yesterday was a day of firsts! First time to try to potty training and first trip to the ER. Here is how we ended up there..... He woke up feeling good and we had a nice start to potty training! He didn't eat a lot of breakfast but some days he does and others he doesn't so I didn't think much about it. When lunch time rolled around he still didn't eat. He then became very cranky and uninterested in the potty thing so I let my dad take him up for his nap. He normally goes down pretty easy but today he didn't. He said that his tummy hurt and couldn't get comfortable. He finally fell asleep but didn't stay asleep long. He moved all around and cried out a couple times then finally woke up. He was NOT himself. He cried and wanted to be held. Then all of a sudden he would be fine. Then minutes later he would say his tummy hurt, then drop to his knees and cry and move around trying to get comfortable. It was so sad. My parents wanted him to spend the night si...
