My Poor Baby

My poor sweet baby had some shots today. Err.. yesterday. (It's 1:30 am). I almost fell apart when he got the first one and screamed. It was horrible. When we got home, he wasn't feeling good so we spent a lot of time cuddling. He started running a fever of 102.5 so he got some baby Tylenol (which he loved) and we skipped bath time since he hates that.

He's sleeping in my lap now but I don't want to fall asleep myself yet. I just want to watch him.

New Diaper Covers-Yes! Shots-No!

Yesterday my husband, Baby J and I went to the local cloth diapering store and got two new Thirsties Duo Wrap covers for Baby J! He's grown out of one of his Rumparooz covers. While we were there we looked at some carriers because my husband wants to wear Baby J when he gets a little older. I think I have him talked into getting a Mei Tai so we can share it! So excited! Love my ring sling but I think I'll want something else when he gets bigger.

Baby J has his 2 month doctor appointment tomorrow. I'm so nervous about getting his shots. We are delaying some so he wont get much but I am worried about him. I hate seeing my baby in pain. He's never had a shot before. He did really well with all the heel pricks in the hospital so I hope things go smoothly.

Shopping, Boobs, Old Ladies and Naps.

Husband, Baby J and I went out to eat and grocery shop today. Baby J spent the entire time nursing in the sling. I seriously need to get my knee to heal quicker because I was shuffling around like an old lady with a limp. (Sexy!) A couple of times Baby J had to be repositioned when he accidentally unlatched and I'm pretty sure I flashed a family of 3 in the toy department. I know I flashed a security camera. Oops. Now I'm home with my feet up chugging my Starbucks Frappuccino and nursing Baby J (again).

I can't wait for tomorrow because we are going to the local cloth diapering store to get Baby J a new diaper cover! He's grown out of one of his! My baby is growing up!! Not sure how to feel about this. Also we are on the look out for one of those stationary bikes so I can work on getting my knee to bend, The physical therapy place wont call me back so I can start going there so I'm gonna do it myself with what I remember doing the last two times I dislocated my knee.

I got to take a much needed nap today. Granted it was only 45 minutes but it felt great! My husband said he actually had to check on me to see if I was ok because I was face down in the pillow with one leg tangled in the sheets and one hanging off the bed. Not sure how I got into that position, or how I was able to breathe. Oh well, it worked.

I'm Clean!

Today the most amazing thing happened. My husband volunteered to watch Baby J so I could take a much needed shower! Lately, showers have become something I'd pay good money for. You have no idea (or maybe you do) how good it feels to be able to wash off sour milk, pee, drool, sweat and whatever else that has been clinging to me since my last shower. I'm definitely not a glamour mom.

Part of me is considering a water sling so I can shower with Baby J instead of wait for an

opportunity with my husband's hectic schedule.

The Sling Station has some great ones. Think of it! Showering whenever I want! I'd be on top of the world! Baby J hates being clean so we'd have our work cut out for us but mama would be happy! When I got into the shower, I was faced with a familiar dilemma. What should I wash first to make the whole showering experience fulfilling? Should I use shampoo and conditioner? I'm definitely using the poofy scrub thing. Did I just hear crying? I better hurry or I wont have post shower lotion time!

Did I just write a blog post about showering? Yes, I did. Moral of the story? Be thankful for the small things. And soap. Be thankful for soap.
