If by fine you mean waiting 40 minutes before being called back while your car seat hating baby glares at you. For the record, she only hates the car seat if she's not in a moving car. So going home for Christmas should be fine. And after 1.2 seconds of glaring she switched to all out baby screaming and promptly was rescued from the torture device that was holding her captive.
But whatevs. Otherwise I am healthy. I wasn't expecting any differently though. Apparently the doctors missing the birth is not something that ever happens at my practice because 3 different people were like "Oh we heard about you."
In completely unrelated news I am spectacularly failing at Advent this year. Our Jesse tree is set up but not one single decoration has been placed on it. And my Advent candles should arrive sometime today. Because while I planned ahead and figured out all the Christmas presents and such, the Advent preparations just apparently slipped my mind.
I still need to figure out Christmas cards too but I have every hope that they will be in the mail by this time next week. Which is still plenty of time I think. We haven't even received one yet.
So instead of blathering on about nothing I am going to go do something productive. Like read my book club book. Or nap. Either way.
Enjoy your book or your nap!
ReplyDeleteThese days are busy, crazy days which I recall well. Throw in seasonal preparations and Christmas cards, sprinkle in a postpartum doctor visit, and I'd say if everyone is thriving each day you are doing well. Be patient with yourself and take that nap or read that book when you can. As they grow older their needs change and so will your time. Heck, I don't have a clue what I'm going to do for Christmas cards yet, so you are not alone.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Advent, whether planned or unplanned. You're doing well, Madeline.
