Things you must have in your purse…..

Last weekend I was with my girlfriend Monica driving in the car to our girlfriend Maria's house. While talking I noticed she had something in her teeth, so I let her know. I hate that embarrassment, I always let people know. She couldn't get it out so I pulled out dental floss from my purse. She said, “Heather you always have everything.” She suggested I should post on my blog what to carry in your purse, so here are some items I usually make sure I have.............
  • Driver’s license
  • Bank card / credit card
  • Sunglasses
  • Cell phone
  • A small hairbrush
  • Dental floss
  • Pen and/or pencil
  • Hand sanitizer
  • Hand lotion
  • Chap Stick
  • Lipstick
  • Gum
  • A small daily planner
  • Nail clippers
  • Nail file
  • Baby wipes (must better than a tide pen, wipes get out any stain, almost any)

Sleeping

Our little princess is doing much better at sleeping on her own. Tuesday she took two 25 minute naps all by herself on the couch. She fall asleep on me first then I laid her down. Not to the stage of her soothing herself to sleep yet. When we were at my sister's last week she did sooth herself to sleep a couple times. My sister has one of those old swings that winds up and Jaycee liked that for some reason. I need to find one. Yesterday she napped a lot in the car while we were running errands and took little 10 minute naps on the couch. Last night she was a big girl. She slept 5 hours in her bassinet. Daddy and I actually got to cuddle for awhile. She woke up at 2:30am and wanted to nurse. I woke up and fed her, but couldn't get her back to sleep in the bassinet so she slept with us till she woke up at 7am. We need to keep working at it and she will get better. Big improvements so far. Now if we can just get her to do better at taking the bottle.

Currently she is laying on the couch asleep........wonder if she will last longer than 10 minutes. Go Jaycee go..........I have faith in you.

My sweet angel sleeping on the couch.

Back to work soon

I only have one more week before I have to go back to work :-( I start back March 10th. Not looking forward to leaving Jaycee. Even thought I know she will be in good hands. I have really enjoyed the time with her, ever minute of it. I am so thankful my work is letting me start back part-time. Working part-time makes things a little easier. She is doing so many things right now and changing everyday, feel like I am going to miss out on things. Never thought being a working mom would be so hard.

Sani you'll have to take pictures through out the day on your cell phone and send to me and Daddy.

Our road trip

Jaycee and I have returned from Zona. We had a really nice visit, but it was TOO SHORT. Wish we could have stayed through the weekend and part of this coming week. Since Daddy didn't go we didn't want to be gone that long. Daddy missed his little princess BUNCHES and thought she grew in the time we were gone. She started sucking her thumb while we were gone and daddy felt he missed out.

It was really nice to hang out with my nephews and nieces. I miss them already, they grow so much each time I see them. Of course it's always nice to hang out with my sister and brother-in-law Shane also. I wish we lived closer. Zerah the little one, who is 5 months old, is really going to be different next time I see her. When we returned home Jaycee was trying to be like her cousin and roll over, yesterday she rolled her whole body over. It was too cute; of course after she rolled over she was stuck and needed help.

Jaycee got to hang out with her cousins all week, along with her auntie and Uncle Shane. She also got to hang out with grandma and grandpa, great grandma and grandpa, second cousin Caylee and great aunt Linda.

Auntie Shelly, Zerah and Jaycee. They are both wearing their cute little octopus outfits.
