Wow

I can't believe its been two weeks since my last post! It's probably because its been such a hectic and stressful two weeks!

First things first... We're moving! We were fortunate enough to have someone make an offer on our house before we even put it on the market. This allowed us to put an offer in on a house we've had our eye on, and now that we've made it through inspections on both houses I think its safe to say we're moving! We've got a little over a week until the move so our house looks like a bomb dropped in it. But we're making good headway and I think we're going to have everything packed by moving day. By the way.. trying to pack with a 3 month old is no easy task and I definitely wouldn't recommend it! I'm happy that we are moving but wish I could just fast forward through these next few days and be settled in our new house.

Lillian is continuing to get settled into daycare and I am getting settled back into work. I am starting to love the women who take care of her which is making it easier to leave her everyday. Of course I can't wait to pick her up every afternoon and see her cute smiling face.

In Lillian health news, she got diagnosed with Reflux two weeks ago after a trip to a pediatric pulmonologist. She always sounded like she was congested but never had any spit up issues so I was pretty surprised to hear it was reflux. We have started feeding her 3tsp of rice cereal with a spoon before she drinks her milk which seems to be helping out. The first few times I tried to feed her she almost choked to death, but luckily the women at daycare showed me how its done. She doesn't really like it at all, but it really seems to be helping, so we're going to stick with it.

And just because its so cute, one more pict....

First Week at Daycare

Lillian just finished her first week in daycare and it was quite an eventful week!! I am very lucky to have wonderful daycare on-site at work, and we were very lucky to get a spot. We've actually been on the waiting list last May because the waiting list is notoriously long.

Lillian on her first day

Her first day at daycare was on Monday. She woke up around around 5:30am and after a feeding we both fell back asleep for another two hours. When I woke up I realized I better get up and moving if I was going to get her to daycare any time that morning! I had defrosted some milk for her bottles the night before because I wanted to make sure to send her with more than I thought she would really need. Unfortunately when I went to poor the milk into the bottles it shot over the bottle opening and spilled over the counter. So I tried again, reminding myself this time to be really careful... and what happened?! I spilled it again! I lost an entire ounce of milk to my clumsiness! So Lillian went to daycare with one bottle a little short. After that I loaded her up and we headed towards daycare. But not before reversing out of my driveway and promptly into my neighbors car which was parked across the street from my driveway.  Yes, you read that right. Lillian's first day at daycare was also the first day she was in a car accident. Not.Good. Needless to say, when I showed up to daycare I was pretty frazzled. I had all these things that I had wanted to tell them....like how she likes to lay on a play-mat, or that she hates a pee-pee diaper. But I forgot everything and basically dropped her off and bolted out of there. But not before realizing I had forgotten my check book which was needed to pay for daycare! Woops!! It was a pretty rough morning!! 

The good news is the rest of the week went relatively smoothly. I started work on Wednesday so we had a few practice runs getting her there before we had to get us both there. The biggest challenge now is that she's still waking up between 3-4am for a feeding, so that is making waking up at 6am to get ready for work pretty challenging. I'm hoping that in the coming weeks she decides to drop that feeding, but until then I may just have to figure out a better way to cover my undereye circles! LOL.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
