my dad used to nag us the day before school and sing "back to school" over and over, as a reminder that our vacation fun was done. that's how i feel today. dad'll be coming over this afternoon so i can shower and get ready to leave. he's going to watch bitty and nibs until charlie gets home.
i've got some bottles sterilized, we don't know what kind she'll take. and i have a little breast milk frozen, probably enough for 3 bottles. after that it's formula until i build up a supply. she doesn't wake up that often at night to eat, usually i feed her at 9, between 11 and 12, and then not again until about 5am.
it always sucks leaving them to go back to work. i hated leaving o even more i think because she was still miserable and screaming constantly when i had to go back, i felt so bad leaving her. at least b is healthy now.
bailey's fighting a nap in the swing, klausie and olivia are in the back yard. she's got a small shovel that she thinks she needs to dig up the back yard with. it's nice to have her playing outside more though. she just dumped a nice shovelful of sand on the dog, poor guy.
she's still doing pretty well with the potty. accidents here and there, but at least she's making an effort unlike before. i'm not the mom that's going to scrape poop out of panties to save a buck- if you poop in them, they go in the trash. she doesn't like watching her princess panties go in the trash, so that's a motivator.
even though i was miserable and pregnant, at least i could nap before work when it was just o. can't trust the 3 year old around bailey if i'm not paying attention, so that'll take some bribery in her room with a baby gate up. tonight should be interesting- new year's eve is always bad at a trauma center, nightshift on new year's is always worse, but no nap and a 12 hour shift will make it even more fun. hopefully the drunks will have thinned out by the time i need drive home in the morning. between business and needing to pump every 3-4 hours, i'm sure the night will fly by.
