There were a couple things that I wanted to write about, but after numerous two hour naps throughout the day, I can't really remember anything.
This morning around 0700, I took Eisley to the living room and put her in the swing. I figured my mom would take care of her, but I wasn't concerned because I need sleep desperately. At 0900 or so, my mom told me she was going shopping and Eis was in the swing. She asked if she should turn off my noise maker so I could hear her if she cried. I said I'd hear her anyway and to leave it on.
I think we ended up waking up around 1100 or so...
Ugh. Freaking Eisley's arms! Drive me nuts... I want to bind them to her body so she won't flail them about and wake herself up! I swaddle her so tight and she wriggles out of it or just wriggles the blanket up around her face and I have to fix it. So irritating. Hold on...
Ok. Swaddled her extra tight, then bounced her a bit, then put my boob compresses on her to weigh her hands down. Should work...
Anyway... woke up at 1100 and fed her. Shortly after waking, I brought her in, put her on the change pad and proceeded to change her diaper. I sit her on the old one, wipe her, then throw away the old one, put a new one under her, powder her, then close it up. However, this time, as soon as I removed the old one to throw it away, she starts to pee! She peed all over the changing pad, so I put her new diaper on her, scooted her over, then changed the cover of the changing pad.
We decided to go sit outside with Puck, since the weather was the most beautiful and perfect it's been since I can remember. However, she pooped shortly after we sat down, so we were back inside changing diapers again.
I decided I was hungry, so I put her in the swing in the living room and grabbed some breakfast while she swung. She started crying when I was close to finished eating, so I turned off the swing, picked her up, then held her in one hand while I finished eating my cereal with the other. I checked the bottom of her diaper as I put my bowl in the sink and noticed she needed to be changed again! We went back to the nursery and I began the routine, but as soon as I removed the dirty diaper to throw it away, she pooped on the changing pad and then started peeing on it! I was shocked that she'd dirtied both of my change pad covers in a matter of an hour!
Needless to say, I did a load of laundry immediately. I had plenty between the two covers plus all the stuff she spit up on last night...
I gave her to my dad cause I wanted to go sit outside with Puck and knew she wasn't up for being still and calm. Puck and I sat outside for probably close to an hour. It was around this time that I got to chat with Ty, but also got extremely tired.
I went inside and laid on my bed. I wanted to nap so bad, but wanted to talk to him, too. I just hoped he would need to go to sleep soon. Luckily he did, but unfortunately, Eis was crying about 20 minutes later.
I fed her, changed her, then gave her to my mom so I could sleep. I slept for two and a half hours and then decided I should get up and eat while she was sleeping. She had a three hour nap while I slept and ate, which made for a late night tonight.
She nursed for almost an hour before I began writing and she's actually gone to sleep (I think) without having to cry and squirm first! Yay!... Well, she squirmed, but I fixed that. I must go to sleep while I can, since who knows how long I'll actually get to sleep.
My goal is to take Eisley to the post office and mall by myself tomorrow. I need to mail a box and return a top. Maybe if I take too long at home, dad will go with me after he returns from golf. We'll see.
