I am so jealous!
Jeff is home right now . . .probably sleeping away! He has two extra weeks of vacation that he has to use before the end of the year, so he's taking a few extra days off around the holidays, and the next two mondays.
So he has three four day weeks!
SO NOT FAIR!
I'm really lamenting the fact that I am required to use a full week of PTO to start off my maternity leave. I understand that it makes people think twice about taking a short term disability leave unless the REALLY need it . . .but can't they make an exception for maternity leave? When you are having a baby, you really need that extra week for sick time for you and baby!
Anyway . . .
We had a busy weekend. If I didn't mention before, Kayla is growing like a weed, which is evident in the fact that she now takes 5 oz bottles to daycare. Needless to say, I'm now struggling just a little bit harder to meet her needs. That plus the fact that she screamed for most of yesterday with what I hope was the end of the tummy tantrum brought on by the evil piece of cheese I ate Thursday.
Saturday we drove up to Omaha for a birthday party for a one year old. It was nice to see a few faces I haven't seen in a while, but I appreciated going home. A short nap was taken, and then Jeff took Alaina to Champions Fun Center for his company's family night.
I sent the camera with them and Jeff sat down to show me all the picture he took, only to realize he'd only taken three, one of which was of a friend and their child.
I'm going to guess Alaina consumed about two cups of sugar while out with daddy in the form of cotton candy, snow cones and even more. She came home wired to the hilt, streaked in dirt, sporting a fresh bruise on her knee and had blue cotton candy stuck in her hair.
Evidence of a great time!
I can't wait to take both girls next year!

Oh - it really does just keep getting more FUN! The kids can do so much more. We can be out in public for a just a longer with each passing month. No more diapers. No more bottles. We can even get away without a nap. Though it's hard to give up having a BABY, it really is FUN to have big kids too! :0) It's hard to imagine that, when one is knee deep in bags of pumped milk and burp clothes.
hopefully aunt stacey will be back to feed her more cotton candy at the 4th of july party. Yeah!!
That PTO policy really stinks. Hope Kayla is feeling better by now. Did Jeff enjoy his day?
