Kellis is 3 weeks old today!
-I already have a storage container of clothes that are too small for him. He has a really long torso and skinny body, so only certain brands of clothes fit him. This should be interesting.
-I want to take him to be weighed, maybe later this week? Probably not but I'm thinking about it.
-Huggies size 1 are smaller than Pampers size 1. I'm almost through one package but I have 2 more and no receipts or idea where they are from. I guess I'll just hurry up and use what I can before he gets any bigger.
We had a good morning, fed/pumped and back to sleep which was very much needed after being awake 3-4 hours in the middle of the night. Then it got interesting.
Had a very crazy afternoon today.
4pm:
-Kellis peed everywhere when I changed him. I was pretty upset cause he was in a cute outfit and I hadn't taken his picture yet.
-When I say everywhere, I mean the wall, the bed, the trash can, me, himself and the floor. It was like that commercial where the guy pulls the diaper back and it sprays everywhere. I was pretty mad b/c I actually wore normal people clothes today and looked relatively decent.
-He was also starving so I gave him a bottle while bathing him (I'm really proud of this). I developed a new way to bathe him by myself (previously Scott helped) that seems to work. Bottle in one hand, soap on the other. I feel good that he's clean.
-Outfit #2 on - also very cute and picture-worthy. (shirt #2 on me)
-Apparently the bath was traumatic cause then he spit up all over me, his outfit and his self.
-Outfit #3 on - shirt #3 on me. (gave up on super cute and picture taking)
-Its only 5pm.
-Finally got him to sleep, sat down on the couch to relax for a minute. Got into a show.
6pm.
-Realized my phone was in the bedroom and I hadn't heard from Scott. Went to get it. K wakes up when I stand up.
-Figured I should change K before he was starved and screaming.
-Good thing, cause he started screaming.
-Stuck a bottle in his mouth, saw I missed 2 text and a call from Scott. Great, probably he's going to be late.
-Yup, he's going to be late. Has no idea when he'll be here.
-Fed K, pumped and realized Raider needed caring for if Scott was going to be late.
-Fed Raider, made K another bottle (damage control).
-Got the stroller out of the car. Had trouble unfolding it. Almost started sweating. (this is a huge problem cause its all I can do to shower once a day)
-Got K in the stroller, Raider on the leash (stopped for a second to take myself potty).
-Got us all out the door, Raider pottyed right away (poor guy).
- Really proud of how Raider did walking with the stroller. I imagined much worse behavior by him. He is really taking to being a big brother.
-Had to look hilarious taking the stroller over to get a poo bag, back to pick up the poo and back to deposit it in the trash can. Next time we'll bring a bag with us.
7:30pm
-Finally got to make myself some dinner. Only my 2nd meal today, what a day!
-Kellis fell asleep before drinking his bottle which means he'll be awake in 45min-1hour and want it.
-Let's hope he sleeps better tonight.
