As I sit here watching my son play on the floor for the past hour, I thought to myself, why haven't I tried this before? Maybe I have. I have put him on the floor before, but he usually fusses and cries about it. I am left wondering if maybe this is a growth thing. He has been going 7 hour stretches for sleep for the past 2 nights. Maybe he is just growing. Or maybe it is absolutely nothing, as babies change constantly.
Today was a fairly good day. I find myself missing my husband more and more. I wonder if it is because we are 7 months in now, which feels like 9 since he was gone for 2 months before he left. I have met some great friends in the past 2 weeks and I hope those friendships continue to grow. I am looking forward to going home and seeing family, but I will be a little sad to miss out on some of the meetups. Luckily, those groups will still exist when I get back :)
Today I went with a friend to a new meet up which was a ways away, so we carpooled. It was fun to meet more new people and get out of the house. I think I will continue to carpool with her every Monday :) We then went to Ikea afterward, where I bought toys for the son that he is way too young to play with, but I couldn't resist! After that, we came home and just nursed and took naps the rest of the day. I know, not very exciting, but that was the day. I am currently waiting for him to get tired enough to go to bed. I have a baked potato calling my name! If I would have known he was going to like the floor so much, I would have cooked it up in the microwave while he was playing, oh well. Oh, I also took out all the garbages, vacuumed the floor, and cleaned out the vacuum since it was quite full. I was happy to see in the waste management website that garbage day is a day off this week, I forgot to get the garbage out there today for pick up tomorrow, but now I have an extra day!
I am also anxiously awaiting my sister to have her baby. I don't want her to have it early, especially this early, but I'm just so excited!
I managed to not have any of those anxious feelings today, that is huge for me. I didn't even wake up with any anxiety like I normally do. This makes me wonder if my hormones are finally going back to where they should be. The plan tomorrow is to go to jazzercise in the morning and then hang out with my friend for a couple hours in the afternoon. I would also like to get 2 loads of laundry done. Well, that is it for now, I think the boy is actually dozing off on the floor, which is my queue to get him ready for bed, fed, and put him down for the night!
