I have been so busy lately trying to organize this apartment to fit three humans and all their stuff. Rubbermaid totes are what I have been spending the majority of my money on lately. Everything is in totes and everything has its place. I am always getting on Patrick to put stuff away in its place. I honestly think he believes a magical fairy comes in and cleans and organizes and puts all his stuff away. He is a funny one.

Tonight we had to give Esther some Gripe Water for the first time. She was extremely fussy and cried all the time. She wouldn’t settle down and was getting so tired. Also, everytime she ate (which was ALOT) she threw up and became more fussy. So I thought it must be a belly ache. Almost immediately after giving it to her she settled right down and went to sleep. Poor little girl wasn’t feeling well after all. Glad we decided to try the Gripe Water out. It worked wonders. I hope she still feels better after getting in a good sleep.

I have pumped a lot lately. I am trying to freeze lots so that we have it just it case.. and also we have been giving it to her in a bottle to try to get her use to it. We want to be able to go out and leave her with my mom or someone and I want to know she is able to eat and enjoy it. She seems to be taking pretty well to it. It is amazing when you can see how much she eats in a sitting. Little girl can pound back 4 oz in a matter of minutes.

This has been a rather long and rambling post. Just wanted to leave a little update here. The things that are exciting in my life are hilarious… When my friends are out drinking and party it up.. I get excited every time my daughter makes her poop face..

Oh parenthood..
