Lake Mildred Dos

What a surprise yesterday when Mildred Dos (my car) woke up yesterday morning with a lake on the passenger side floor. I drained said lake with a cup and a towel. Today, that towel is even wetter than it was yesterday. 
Hubby says HHR’s are notorious for leaking water through a broken windshield seal. I say it needs to stop raining so I can park in front of the building again.

One Month…

One_Month1

{Oh my, time flies. Gabriel turned a month over a month ago. I never did give myself a chance to post his update. This was originally set to post February 10,2011.}

At one month baby was:

WEIGHT: 10lbs 11oz

HEIGHT: 21 & 3/4 inches

TEMPERMENT: Pretty chill baby only if changed, fed and put down for a nap within two hours. Any longer and he gets really cranky.
It was hard to get him to breastfeed the first week of life. He scared us to death the day he came home from the hospital. He decided he was going on a hunger strike for over 12 hours. Imagine coming home exhausted, physically and emotionally, in tremendous pain and not being able to feed your child the way you wanted to.
I set myself for failure because I was under educated and misinformed by a slew of people at the hospital.
Anyway, Gabriel is eating like a champ from his bottle and sleeping well some nights.

Recovery from the C Section was awful. I woke every time the baby moved so I didn’t get any sleep. I’m pretty sure I suffered from postpartum for the first month.

Even though those few things didn’t work out as I planned it my baby turned out healthy and he is a dream.

 

 

Music

Ever get a song stuck in your head? I get inappropriate music stuck in my head in the oddest moments.

Example: the entire time I was in labor with Gabriel “tonight (I’m f-ing you)” was stuck on replay. I hate that song with a passion but because I heard it twice on my way to the hospital it was there to stay.

Right now I have “December” by Taylor Swift stuck since Saturday. A whole lot better than the latter.

What song is stuck in your head right now?
