Sleeping in

Everyone slept well and actually kinda overslept this morning. But I embraced my okayness with Ellie being late to school and didn't rush, push, or hurry through the morning. Cal slept really well letting me have two (2!!!) stretches of 3 hours of sleep which was awesome. Ellie was a little hard to wake up this morning. But we got through all our morning to-dos.

While I was pumping this morning Cal was awake and hanging out in his bouncy seat with hiccups. Ellie had done 4/5 of her tasks. So she came into Cal's room, grabbed a "baby book" and decided to read to him. It was so sweet!









I'm not quite sure how much he really liked Yummy Yucky but he wasn't fussing or crying through his hiccups!

And after everything, Ellie got to school right on time. And she wasn't the last one there!

Cal has a dr appt this morning. Instead of heading home only to turn around, we decided to go to Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in Old Town (I recently found a parking lot with free parking for 90 min (score!!).



Yesterday Cal and I had two adventures. We went to a Breastfeeding support group run by the hospital he was born at. I picked up a new way to burp him with great results. And realized how lucky I am that both Ellie and Cal are great feeders and whatever issues we may have, are so minor compared to the majority of other Breastfeeding moms.

Ellies friends invited her to a play date at a playground yesterday afternoon. Usually we have to decline these play dates because Nick needs to rest and so E stays at school till the end of the day. But because I'm on maternity leave, I packed up a sleeping Calvin, picked E up early and headed to the playground. Ellie was very happy to have a chance to hang out with her friends outside of school.
