Leah slept from 11pm to 6:30 this morning. Too good to be true, right? I get out of bed to make her a bottle and immediately step in dog puke. Yep, it was too good to be true! I couldn't clean up the puke right away because Leah needed to eat and if she didn't she would start screaming and wake up Kaelyn. I had to feed Leah and stare at the pile of puke for a good 20 minutes before I could finally clean it up. Where's my little elf helpers when I need them? Probably swiggin the Vodka to avoid doing any chores.
I decided to make my first trip out in public with both kids alone. After the puke clean up I figured the day can only go up. We all survived and the girls did GREAT!
A little update on the kiddos-
KAELYN-
I am happy to announce that she has been sleeping through the night ALONE in her bed! For any other parents dealing with kids and sleeping issues I have no advice! We went against all the things you should do. Aaron would have to go into her bed and sleep with her every night for a few months. I have no idea why she started sleeping on her own but I won't complain!
She really loves being the big sister! She always wants to help, sometimes too much. She kisses her every morning and loves to feed her. I am so happy the transition was easier than we expected it to be.
We were recently in the grocery store and while checking out, Kaelyn, (who was in the shopping cart) started talking to a little girl in line behind us. All the sudden I hear the little girl say "Daddy, why does that girl have her shirt up over her head?" I turn to look at Kaelyn grabbing her chest and she's shouting "Look at my boobies! I pumpa da boobies to feed baby sista! Hahahahaha Look at my boobies!" I look at the other girls dad and blurt out Sorry, I just had a baby and boobs are the talk of the town in our house right now. What? Did I really just say that. Crap. Total word vomit. He just looked at me and didn't say anything.I avoided all further eye contact until our transaction was done. Forget using coupons. I need to get us out of here! Meanwhile Kaelyn is still shouting about boobies.
I love that kid.
LEAH-
Well, she may look just like Kaelyn but boy are they different!!! She is somewhat of a screamer. She loves to be held and she isn't too fond of Aaron yet. She sleeps great at night (which is wonderful!) I love all the little sounds she makes. Even though it takes me 4 hours to go to three places I just love this little ladybug!
Not much to report on the baby front since all she does is eat, sleep, poop and scream. :)
On a side note, I went to a bar recently for a bit of adult time with some ladies. I was wearing maternity pants. Mainly because I was seeing a movie before that and wanted to wear comfy pants and those things are down right COMFORTABLE! Shoot, anything with an elastic waist is comfy but I figured yoga pants wouldn't fly at the movies. I mean this was one of my first outings sans kids since I had given birth. I had to at least wear jeans!We were seeing Magic Mike so I guess wearing clothes in general was optional. However, point being...... I felt like an adult for a few seconds until I realized I was wearing those pants and I was immediately reminded that I should probably get home to my girls and change into another pair of "comfy" pants with an elastic waist. Oh life......
