Because it's rare I have any down time! But Chloe had her two-week checkup yesterday. She weighed in at 9 lbs, 2 oz! So that's great... she is gaining well and in the 75th percentile for weight. She is also a whopping 22 inches long - that's the 95th percentile. She's already doing better in the height department than Noah is, lol! They also had to re-do her PKU test. :( That part sucked. I was kind of looking forward to no needle pricks but nope! It went quicker than it did in the hospital, at least.
I found out just now that Noah bit another child at daycare today. :/ Greaaaat. We have THAT kid~! Hopefully that is just a one-time incident. I'm not even sure how to get him to not bite other kids when he doesn't do that at home (but he does bite himself... is that weird? Yeah, I think so.).
My birthday was last Friday! Matt got me an HTC Evo Shift. :D That was a great gift! Although I am having issues with the SD card already. So hopefully I can figure that out because right now it's not letting me take any pictures.
Speaking of pictures, I took some of Chloe today wearing her "0 months old" sticker. :P I bought a pack of month stickers from Etsy and that was included so I figured I'd use it! Even though she's not quite as little as she was when she was first born. I also picked up a few things at Target with her today. I got some onesies and fruffles (headbands) for her Easter basket... but I did take one of the fruffles out today so she could wear it for her pic, lol.
I got some Hello Panda cookies (strawberry and chocolate), animal crackers, bubbles, balloons and sidewalk chalk for Noah's easter basket. I want to fill some of those plastic eggs with candy so he can do an egg hunt but I could not find any! I also got him some new shoes. And Chloe also got a new blanket.
Oh, and Chloe was sleeping when I got to Target so I figured I'll just leave her sleeping in her car seat and I'll take out the stroller. So she was fine and slept... blah blah... then I'm going through the baby clothes section and she starts to cry. My fear. Because we all know that means she wants to eat. I took her out of the stroller and held her but she definitely wanted to eat. So luckily there was no one near me and I took our the nursing cover and got her situated (I'm glad she's still small enough that I can nurse her using one arm) and continued shopping, LOL. I wondered a.) how many people even knew what was happening and b.) of the people that knew what was happening, how many gave me dirty looks. I tried not to make eye contact but a kind fellow who worked there actually struck up a conversation with me while I was nursing her. I don't know if he even had a clue but he said he had a seven month old so he might have and just didn't care... which is awesome. I was kind of scared he was going to be like, "CAN I SEE HER?" lol So of course she started to get fussy again eventually... I know she had a dirty diaper, too, so that probably made her mad. I'm standing in the middle of the main aisle trying to get her re-situated, which wasn't happening, so I just took her out from under the cover and carried her... I very well may have flashed someone. Who knows.
I nursed all the time in Target and was always nervous people would ask to see baby! - More than once people would say "Oh! Baby is sleeping" because they could see his feet sticking out "Uh huh! He sure is!" LOL. It gets so much more comfortable the more you do it...I was ALWAYS covered and would try and sit whenever possible but sometimes...you just have to multitask :) GL!!
ReplyDeleteFor sure! I did feel pretty awesome that I was doing that though, hahaha. I already feel pretty comfortable nursing in public... the cover definitely helps! I think I'm going to have to step it up and do it in church this weekend... yikes! We'll just be sure to sit in back, lol.
