Bath Time

Bath time is a fun time for Breann. She enjoys it and it is so cute because she gets the biggest smile on her face and giggles a little. Jeff is a pro at giving her baths and I just stick to washing her hair. She crys at the end of the bath time because we wrap her in a towel and she is no longer in the warm water. I am thankful for that being our only problem.

OK . . . quick moment . . . I just turned to see how Bree was doing and she is asleep in her swing but she is dreaming because her hands and feet are just moving a little bit. Kind of like a dog sleeping and they are chasing a cat.

Sleeping Bree

OK . . .so when we left last weekend to go to Jamestown we took the bassinet because it was smaller then the travel crib. Well the travel crib is in our room replacing the bassinet for the time being. The travel crib is huge for Breann, it is so big that she turns 180 degrees in it while she sleeps. It is quite entertaining to watch. She is also starting to suck on her thumbs once in a while. It is either the thumb or the pacifier. Bree would prefer the paci over the thumbs.

Jeff's Birthday

Jeff and I went out to Islands with our friends for his birthday yesterday. It was very nice and the baby slept the whole time. His friends made him a Wall-E cake to go with his theme of Wall-E movie Friday. This Friday we are going to go see the movie Wall-E and if anyone would like to go, let me know.

Cool Baby

Jamestown

Well this last weekend we drove up to Jamestown in Sonora county to visit my grandparents. Everyone was excited to see each other and I wish we could have stayed there a little longer. The drive up there and back was long but Breann did well. Jeff and I took a different route from everybody else and tested out new roads. Lets just say that the 395 and the 58 are long drives with very little rest stops. On the way up we left at night time so there wasn't much to see except these blinking blue lights off in the distance. On the way back we realized that it was a hill full of energy wind mills. My family and I drove around the Jamestown area to see what has changed in the past few years and it is sad to say that a lot of businesses were closed. We all had fun hanging out with each other and my grandma, mom and I cried when we had to leave. I wish they lived closer but their land is so pretty and nice up there.

RVT Test

Yesterday I received a notice in the mail from the state boards that the price to take the RVT test has jumped from $75.00 to $250.00. That is a huge jump and Jeff and I can't afford me taking the test right now. It is funny when I took the test last time and didn't pass I was talking to Sara and Jeff and we all thought that maybe this is a sign and I am not suppose to be a Registered Vet Tech. I was determined though to at least try one more time. Well I am taking this as a sign that God wants me to go in a different direction. I just wish that I know what direction He would like me to go. At least for now and I am going to visit my grandparents this weekend and do a little searching during that time too.

Poor Bree

Late yesterday afternoon Bree had a fever off 100.5 so we went to CVS and bought some infant aspirin. She slept from 4pm until 9pm, she is usually awake around 6pm for dinner. I have to say that it was interesting going to the store because she usually will look around the room to see what is going on but yesterday she put her head on my shoulder and closed her eyes. Poor Bree, not feeling well and wanted to be close to her mommy (I loved it).

2 Months Already

Breann is going to be 2 months tomorrow and today she had her visit with the doctor. The doctor says she is doing great and is healthy for a 2 month old. Then it was time for the shots. Now I felt like I was going to cry before the nurse even came in to give the shots but I wasn't tearing up because I know she was going to cry or because it was going to hurt. I was crying and praying that the shots were going to do there job and not cause her to become autistic. The doctor reassured me that the studies are still inconclusive and it is better to have the shots then not too. I guess this is called a mother's worry when people tell you good news and you still think about the bad. She is doing well and after the appointment we went shopping, which made us both feel better.

Random thoughts

Just to catch people up on myself and the baby.

* Breann is holding her head up more and more. She is 7 weeks now and is making little baby noise's that is so cute.

* I was given an extra 2 weeks of disability. For reason's with the body no woman should have to experience and the requirements of my job gave me extra time off.

* My family gave me a belated baby shower this last weekend and my sister's and my mom did a great job. Most of the family was able to greet Breann for the first time and welcome her to the family. Oh my, Bree is going to be one styling little baby.

* My friend Nicole is awesome, I was thinking that I needed to get some shirts for myself. Nicole gave me a little gift which was this cool shirt from Toes on the Nose (a great surf shop for those who didn't know). Also she got a cute little onsie for Breann.

* Jeff's softball team from church won the championship game this weekend.

* Ever wonder if you acted rude after the fact. I feel that sometimes I have pregnancy brain and I am not realizing my words or actions until after the fact. So if I have offended you, act or said something rude to you please forgive me and accept my apologies. I am trying to get back on the track and remember that I am not the only important person in this world.

* Also thank you Rita for taking pictures at the baby shower; they look great

Clothes

So I have lost weight but I am not back to my normal weight before the baby was born. This is a problem because as of right now I have graduations and one more baby shower to attend too. I am hoping that I can find something in my closet that is cute and will fit. I had a rude awakening last Saturday when the outfit I was going to wear to a wedding didn't fit. Now I don't want to go out and just buy something right now because I plan to work off the rest of the weight and don't want to buy something I am only going to wear for a few months. Now the funny thing is I tried on one of my maternity dresses and it actually fit pretty well. Of course this was after the wedding.

Now for those who are wondering why I have a picture of Breann on this blog, it is because Amy took a cute picture and I wanted to share.
