Busy Day!

Wow! Who knew stay-at-home Mommy-ness could be so busy? I sure didn't. Before we knew it, the day was over.

Kate and I hit the hills early and did our 4 1/2 miles...most of which I ran (yay me). We were back for her breakfast and then playtime until she was ready for a nap...which she did for an hour and a half (yay me again). During that time, I showered and got ready for the day and filed for unemployment (yay a third time)! Then Nia (my now FORMER co-worker) came by and we went to lunch. Kate napped after lunch (whoot whoot) and then her friend Libby and her mom Lauren came over and we all played on the front lawn until almost bath time.

Unfortunately, unlike last nights dreamy feed before bed, Kate was still wired from the day, so she bit a little while nursing. I was so happy last night when she nursed as she used to, all sleepy and cuddly and eventually falling totally asleep. Tonight, I put a wiggly Kate into her crib still very much awake. The bad news: she maybe starting a trend where she doesn't nurse all cuddly-like which is heart-breaking. The good news: at least I know I have a baby who I can put down still awake and she's able to put herself to sleep...which I know, in the future will be HUGE!

Oh, and as a sidebar....I hope the *&#!@#^&* -ing ice cream truck drives off a cliff. TURN OFF YOUR DAMN MUSIC! If it wakes the baby, trust me, the dude will have more than melted ice cream to worry about. Sheesh!
