Weekend wrap-up

First of all the sailor suit pictured in the previous post is no longer red and white. It's red and bluish gray. Oops. Because of the red I didn't want to wash it with the whites. So I put it in with darks. I guess I should have just washed it alone. It's soaking in bleach now so we'll see if it can be recovered. It was only 6 dollars so we can get a new one if need be.

Well our plan to try bottle feeding again today was seemingly interrupted by the fact that I ended up sleeping all day. I went to bed between 11-12 but didn't sleep great because Georgie was right next to me. So I slept the sleep of a parent whose infant daughter is right next to them. Then around 2 Nikki came to bed (she's been frantically editing to meet a deadline for some freelance work she has). Then I couldn't sleep anymore so I was up listening to music on last.fm and doing trivia games on sporcle.com (I can now name all 100 senators -- a dubious accomplishment). By the time Georgie was ready for her first nap of the day Sunday I was too so we all took a nap. Only I woke up at 6pm. That's a little over 8 hours of sleep but it hardly makes up for the sleep I didn't get the rest of the weekend. It's been especially rough lately with my work/sleep schedule but a respite is upon us.

Shortly after I got up Georgie fell asleep on Nikki. We gingerly transferred her to me and Nikki took off for the grocery store. When Georgie woke up, we played a little and then I decided to see if she was hungry. She was and took the bottle (and Adiri one this time) without complaint. So hope is restored. Nikki was very relieved and I have my confidence back.

Georgie ended her evening by laughing riotously at her mother's nonsense words. It was a fun day, even if I slept through most of it.
