cricket, cricket...
Looks like I am here alone. Where are my West coasters?
I slept from 8 pm until 11 and just woke to feed Phoebe. Found DH curled up next to me, did not even know he was home. Apparently he passed out b/c all of the lights were on downstairs and he left a mess in the kitchen. A late massage and then bed, sounds nice to me.
I am on night duty. Phoebe is fussing after her feeding.
She is in the bouncy chair all swaddled up. I have a pic, just gotta upload.
A piece of advice to all the new mommies and soon to be- those black and white geometrical patterned mobiles and clip on mobiles for the strollers etc- they really work. She loves staring at them since it's the only thing she can see right now (besides me when I am in her face). I have one above the changing table to keep her entertained while changing her, then I have one clipped on to her bouncy seat and infant carrier. She has this one clipped on to her co sleeper:
Infant Stim-Mobile - Wimmer Ferguson
cheap and well worth it.
What someone should really do is invent a mobile that sounds like a vacuum cleaner or hair dryer.
