Run Run Run

Boy, were we on the run today. I had so many errands to do: returns, exchanges, and just plan shopping. I always knew having a baby made things take longer, but you never think about the fact that every time you make a stop you have to get out, pull baby out of car seat, haul him around with you/put in carrier/deal with stroller, then put him back in car seat.... it's a freakin' workout. Plus the locker on my car is not locking anything so I have to go around the entire car every time we get out and lock all the doors manually, which is just a PITA. And on top of everything it was just another wonderfully hot California day.

On a good note, I got everything I needed to get done done. And the present I bought for my brother-in-law and soon to be sister-in-law's wedding is awesome, so awesome in fact I will have a hard time giving it away because I want to keep it. I had originally planed to make them a wedding ring quilt but I never got the time.... who knew having a baby would make the days fly by. I still can't believe they are getting married Saturday, I feel like we were just at their engagement dinner last week.

One more nice thing, tomorrow is Nana day and we have nothing that "needs" to get done, so we can spend the whole day just goofing off! So excited to not have an agenda for once.

After our long day running around and a long much needed nap for the little man we went outside to play in the backyard. Unfortunately we were very rudely interrupted by my dear husband turning the sprinklers on on us. At least I got one cute photo of the day before we were soaked and had to run for shelter.

Picture Perfect Sunday

5 MONTHS OLD!!!

Sleepover

So since daddy was out camping all weekend, Jameson and I had our first little sleepover at Nana and Papa's house. He did amazing. We took his pack'n'play and he slept just like as if we were at home. I know some babies have a really hard time sleeping while not at home, I am one very lucky mommy.  :)

Sitting Tall

So as we spent a majority of our day in the backyard just enjoying the lovely weather outside, Jameson decided to show me that he is able to sit up on his own.... for about one minute! He sits up solid for about 60 seconds then all of a sudden gets really wobbly and then flops over. He thinks it is funny and giggles when he falls, well most of the time anyways.



He is just so handsome I can't get over it. He is growing so fast, every new little thing he does just makes me more proud.

Back To The Pump

After my wonderful experience of the huge abscess that developed in my right breast, my milk supply on that side has been less than plentiful. I have decided to dedicate this week to trying to build it back up. Pumping is my worst enemy. I am pumping 15 minutes every two hours on the dot (set an alarm on my phone).... so far not even getting 1/4 oz. *sigh*
I know he gets more than enough milk only nursing on the one side, but I just can't take it anymore. I am so VERY lop-sided.... and my left arm gets so tired always holding him. Crossing my fingers this helps.

Pool Party

In this 100+ degree weather my dear little man feels the need to be outside, so we spent a good amount of time in the pool today! He is such a little water baby.
