Well, here I go! This is my first blog! Woo Hoo! I have had numerous friends and family members ask me to start a blog since almost all of my family is out of town and also lots of friends have moved away over the years and everyone wants to hear all about Hattie now that she is here. Not sure yet the direction this blog is going to take, probably just me rambling and venting about life.
So this past week/weekend was my first real taste in dealing with a sick baby. Hattie got sick on Monday and just went down hill after that. And of course I had to get sick on Thursday. Needless to say I had an amazing weekend. I think what made it so bad was that Dorian was at work all day Saturday and Sunday and it was just me...all alone...all weekend. And I had my first experience with liquid baby poo.....even more horrible. It was on her, the bouncy seat, the floor, the dog (don't ask) the changing table and me! I don't have the words to tell you how awful it was. Just writing about it makes me sick to my stomach and makes me shudder. But I'm glad to say we are doing much better today! Hattie still has a wicked cough that keeps her up a lot at night, but last night seemed better. She only got up once last night at 4:30am. I guess she thought it was time to get up and play. I fed her and made her go right back to sleep, which of course didn't happen. So we played....at 5 in the morning. Big shout out to the creator of the Baby Einstein videos!!! I strapped her in her seat and stuck her in front of the tv (yes I know, great parenting Shauna) and dozed off on the couch till I had to be up in like 25 minutes. Lots of coffee later, I think I'll make it through the day. Icing on the cake...I'm off tomorrow. =>
