Ok so I don't what happened today but it sure wasn't one of our better days.
Last night Gracie went down like a champ..I know that has never happened. I went to bed fairly early as well..by 10:30. I slept like a rock and woke up at 2:30 thinking it must be morning. I ended up getting up folding clothes, cleaning up the kitchen, and checking my FB. John came home shortly after..I know SHOCKER since he's been working 16 and 17 hour days here lately. I decided to wake Gracie to change her diaper and feed her since she hadn't ate or been changed since around 8. We're still battling the diaper rash..and yes I know not to wake a sleeping baby. Well it took until about 6 to get her back down and I went to bed with the hubs.
Needless to say Payton woke me at 9 to go out and sure enough when I got back upstairs little gracie was playing with her feet babbling away..it was at this point I felt so tired I wanted to cry. This is not the least amount of rest I have ever gotten by any means. Looking back on the first 3 months of her life and bfing and the Milk Protein Intolerance this is a cake walk so why did it bother me so much?? i got her up and took care of what needed to be taken care of and just sat with her trying to rest but she was really energetic today in fact I feel bad we didn't play harder. I wish I had done a lot more with her today but all in all we still had fun. She isn't feeling too great the past couple of days. She did get Sophie in the mail today and loves it. I will have to get a pic posted of her and the silly thing.
Bedtime tonight was a nightmare but she's down and I should be too because you just never know what she has in store for me tomorrow.
I may get stressed out but you know what I have the best job in the world..I may have to change diapers, get spit up on, have sleep deprivation, and deal with a screamer at times but who else gets to be a kid again, lay on the floor and talk baby talk, make up silly songs, pinch chunks on your baby to make them laugh, and just be a kid again. I have to remind myself on these tired days just how lucky I am.
Thanks for working so hard John so that I can stay home with our beautiful daughter.
Love you daddy!
