Happy and Not Happy

Hannah slept GREAT last night….

I was sooo Happy!

My boobs were not!  hahahaha

I leaked everywhere.... lovely!

Just Drink!

Hannah’s new thing while nursing is to nurse, stop, look around, nurse some more, stop, look at my nipple then start pinching it like it was some kind of neat toy…. Then I have to remind her it’s not a toy and to nurse or be all done.  Then she will nurse again.  This morning I was nursing her on the couch before work and she was doing her pull off, look around thing and I said “Hannah, it’s not a toy, are you done?”   Sam says “ Yeah Hannah don’t grab, just drink!”  Then he points to my nipple and says “here Hannah” and smashes her face into my boob….. hahahahaha

Trying to get a picture

Yes!  I got it =)

Advent

Now that Sam is getting older I thought some sort of Advent Calendar would be fun - I scoured the internet and saw tons of great ideas - I didnt want to do treats since he gets enough of those - I liked the idea of doing a fun Christmas related activity each day but I think that is more geared toward SAHMs - so then I saw the book idea!  Each day a new book to read!  When Sam was born my sister gave me a book rack filled with like 50 books - most of those Sam still hasnt even seen so I wrapped those up along with 8 Christmas books for the last 8 days -of course Day 24 is "Twas the Night Before Christmas".  Sam has been great about only opening that day's book and it helps with numbers when I say "Ok find book number 2" - next year I think I will go to the library and get books - this is the start of a great tradition!





On the move

Hannah crawled!!  She has been finding ways to get around but today when I got home I laid her on the floor in the playroom and then laid down myself – Hannah wasn’t happy – she wanted me – so I said “Come on Hannah” and sure enough she crawled to me!!!  Way to go girl!
