Small Victories: 9/26 to 10/2

Lots of victories for me this week... even a few that I'd call HUGE.

Friday 9/26
* Today I cleaned some of the house. Cleaning is always a victory. It seems that I'll just begin cleaning something and Jayna needs me.

* Jayna and I went out to lunch today!! We went to Applebee's with my mom, Summer and Chris. Jayna just slept the whole time, so it was nice to get to eat without any fussing.

Saturday 9/27
* We went to the grocery today and Jayna did great in the carrier. She seriously loves it in that thing.

* We also went to a birthday party today. Jayna stayed awake almost the whole time and she was so very social!! She let other people hold her and she didn't cry or fuss almost the whole time.

* Chris fed Jayna at the party and she did great with the bottle! She seems to be getting the hang of it now.

Sunday 9/28
* Today we went to our favorite place: Bloomington!! We decided on Friday that we needed to go and see some friends and have lunch at our favorite restaurant/bar. We had a great day!! We went to the park and Chris got to play frisbee golf with a friend. I stayed with a friend over by the playground so her kids could play. I even fed Jayna in the public park! After the park we went to lunch and I had my favorite beer Upland Wheat. It was delicious. Jayna was so good the whole time. She was even good in the car!!

Monday 9/29
* We had one month pictures today. Jayna was a crazy woman!! We did manage to get some great pictures though.

* Jayna ate well all day. No gulping and minimal spitting up after the morning. She even stayed on a predictable schedule all by herself!

* I cooked dinner today...roast and vegetables in the crock pot. It was delicious and was very hassle-free in the evening. I like that!!

* I painted alot of the tree today. Someday...

Tuesday 9/30
* I was up and ready to start the day at 5am. That's just crazy...

* Jayna slept from 9pm Monday night to 4am this morning!! Holy crap!

* Jayna and I were at Summer's by 7:45am. I never thought we could do it, but somehow we pulled it off.

* Jayna was awake almost all day...and she was so happy and smiley! I love it!

* I did a little shopping today for Jayna. She got some new onesies and a Curious George book.

* Chris and I got to eat dinner with minimal fussing tonight. It was so much more peaceful...

Wednesday 10/1
* She did it again...slept 7 hours!! Hooray!

* We were to Summer's again by 7:40am. Two days in a row!! Inconceivable!

* I got to watch the rest of Gray's Anatomy season premiere today only to learn that it isn't on tomorrow because of the Vice Presidential debate. Dammit!

* I got my hair cut and colored today. I got it cut a little shorter this time so that I can have it straight or curly. My hair hasn't seen a blow dryer since Jayna's been born, so I thought it would be wise to get it cut in an easily styled fashion.

* I left Jayna with Summer while I went to my hair appointment. Eek!

* I did some shopping today...for ME!! I got some new shirts. It's nice to get new things!

* We had a very good bedtime routine tonight. It makes things so much easier when there isn't alot of fussing before bed.

Thursday, 10/2
* Jayna and I were to Summer's by 7:50am...for the THIRD DAY in a ROW!! This is just amazing...

* I came into work this morning to see how long it would take me. I was there by 8:20am...takes about 20 minutes.

* I had my 6 week post partum doctor visit today. Jayna was a wild child while we were there...but it was a good visit. I've lost more weight than I gained while pregnant!! Hooray!
