Tuesday: first flight

Today was Isaac's first airplane ride. It went pretty well. He enjoyed the airport and watching people. Just as we were about to board he fell asleep. But he didn't stay asleep...he probably only slept for 45 minutes. He was pretty good until bedtime, when he lost it. There wasn't too much of the flight left, and the airplane was really loud, so it wasn't too bad.

Monday: first day on the new job

Today was my first day on the new job.  However, my "boss" made it pretty easy on my by sleeping most of the day.

We wore the same type of shirt today...I guess the best way to describe it is long-john material

He was also so tired that he fell asleep while rubbing his eyes.

I'm also in the middle of packing for vacation.  I think we'll manage to get everything in a suitcase, backpack, and diaper bag.  Flurry is sleeping on the luggage.  I'm not sure if she's there because she wants to come with us or because I took up the whole table.

Sunday: nap

I took a nap today.  I had a headache (again...what is it about Sundays?) and got up for Isaac more during the night than usual.  I think he might be going through a growth spurt...it is about the right time for it.

Anyway, while I was napping Ben and Isaac spent some quality time together.  And cleaned the kitchen.  It was a nice surprise when I woke up.

Saturday: this and that

It was a nice day today...relaxing, but we still got stuff done.  Isaac took a four hour nap in the morning, which was kind of crazy. 

Isaac had some happy time with Ben.

 They played flash games.  I'm not a huge fan of flash games, mostly because I don't enjoy most of them (not because I don't think they should be played) so I was a bit disappointed the boys were ganging up on me.

In the 2.5 weeks of work I ended up with a lot of extra milk.  But after being so worried about not having enough ready for daycare I was just hoarding it.

Isaac had a very rough night, mostly for unknown reasons.  One known reason is that I accidently dripped about three drips of cold water on his chest while he was taking his dip.  Oh my.  You would have thought that I was torturing him.  But before the dip and after getting his clothes off he was in a good mood...so he laid on the counter for about 20 minutes, looking at the underside of the cabinets.  Apparently they were interesting.

P.S. Thanks to a youtube video we watched two days ago, Ben and I had the ticky-tacky song stuck in our heads all day.  It's especially hard to get a song out of your head when someone else is singing it all the time too.

Friday: 12 week present

Isaac turned twelve weeks old today!

For his birthday, I will be staying home with him full time.  I've never pictured myself as a stay-at-home mom, but that's the plan!  It was a nice last day at work.  There was a going away lunch and people said they would miss me...it made me feel good.  But not good enough to stay. :)

Thursday: walks

Isaac got to take two walks today.  I think it's funny because he can't walk.

Here we are...I'm at least smiling. :)

Isaac spit up (a lot) on my skirt last time I fed him and it stinks.  I should change, but that would mean going upstairs and I'm feeling lazy.

(oh, and last night we were so close to only getting up once.  He slept for five hours (I think a record!), but then couldn't pull the second stretch quite long enough.)

Wednesday: schedule

Isaac isn't on a strict schedule, but he is on a loose one.  For some reason, that schedule was completely blown out of the water.

He's been doing pretty good at only waking up once (or getting really close to it).  I think I'm going to be up twice tonight. :(  Some of our issues might be due to the fact that we're not swaddling him between 8pm-11pm, and tonight he kept waking himself up.  Since his schedule was all messed up, he was hungry too early.
