I just wanted to apologize again for being such a sh!tty Bumpie lately. Between working full time, trying to spend time with E and DH, and eating and sleeping, most days I can't even tell which way is up... much less spend any time online.
But today I am home with a sick baby girl so I finally have some time to catch up. Another baby at day care gave E pink eye, and she didn't start taking her medicine until yesterday so we had to wait another 24 hours before going back. DARN, two whole days off work to spend with my little girl. Thankfully she doesn't seem to be too upset about the pink eye, other than a little fussiness and the occasional eye-rubbing.
Other than being busy, we are doing great. E had her 4-month checkup this week and has gone from the 25th percentile for weight to the 75th! For those who remember our early struggles with breastfeeding, we clearly have overcome. LOL And yes, she is still EBF so I am very proud of her weight gain. We have also finally beat thrush, after three months of frustration and pain. Hooray!
And last but not least, some exciting news... DH and I have paid off some debts and are finally in a place where I can quit my job to stay home with E! I will still be working about 10 hours a week for my boss for some extra income and to keep my foot in the door, but as of July 1st I will be a SAHM 75% of the time. I am SO EXCITED I can barely stand it!
Well, Sophie seems to no longer be occupying E so I need to get going. I hope all are doing well, and congrats to the new PgAL-ers who have crossed over. I look forward to being able to spend more time with you all soon!
