We also went to the library this week and Friday I took Miles to Chick-Fil-A for lunch and playing since it was raining outside and it was officially our last day of being home together during my leave. He didn't know it was a celebration of sorts, but it was for me. I also spent my two days alone with Hailey while Miles was at daycare snuggling her and loving on her all day long. We were able to take a nice long nap together on Thursday and that was wonderful!
I've been trying to prepare Miles for going to school more often. I haven't talked about it a ton, but have mentioned it a few times. I think he will do just fine and won't really notice too much. However, he does tell me he doesn't want to go to school more and will stay home alone. :)
It was funny on the way home from Chick-Fil-A, Miles kept telling me that Hailey was telling him she wanted to go to the park. I told him it was raining and we couldn't. Then he would tell Hailey that he was sorry, but it was raining and we couldn't go and to not be sad, we'd go when it stopped. It was really cute. He's also into her eating/not eating these days. The other day, he told her "Baby Hailey, you can't eat my broccoli, you don't have any teeth! When you get big, then you can eat my broccoli." It was pretty funny!
Hailey has a lot to say these days!
Hailey is talking a ton these days and getting close to rolling over, I think. She gets on her side often and is even sleeping that way a lot now. She does great on her tummy time, but isn't trying to roll as much when she's on her tummy, more when she's on her back, but that roll is harder, so we'll see. Her colds also seem to finally be clearing, so I'm glad about that. She's had some eye gook the last few days, but her runny nose and cough seem better. We'll keep an eye on it. She's also more focused on her toys and making efforts to grab them. She doesn't exactly grab the toys yet, but can get them up to her mouth to check them out! She is finally starting to take a bottle a bit better as well. We've been trying pretty much one a day for the last 6-7 weeks and she never took to it. This past week, she did take an ounce on two different days and probably would've taken more if there'd been more in the bottle (I didn't want to waste my milk, so we never had much in there). We're hoping she'll do ok at daycare next week! It's also neat to see her appearance changing. She's filling out more and her eyes light up when she sees us! Her hair is starting to curl a bit as well. Not everyday, but some days the ends are turning up and when it's wet, it's definitely curly. Today it was pretty curly all day. Maybe it was the rain!
We were honored this week when I got a call from my cousin Carrie. She asked me to do a reading at her and Chuck's wedding next May and also asked for Miles to be the ring-bearer. We are thrilled and honored to be a part of their special day!
Dad is still in the hospital this weekend. He went in about a week and a half ago with pneumonia, for the 4th time this year. It seems like it's starting to clear and hopefully he will be home sometime this coming week. We continue to pray for him and also for mom that they both will have strength and peace during this time of illness.
It's been pretty nice while I was off work-I got to spend a lot of extra time at my parent's home visiting with them and my brother. It was really nice and I'm going to miss seeing them so often. We only were able to make it to South Bend once while I was off because of Ahmad working (I went to my parent's house twice without him). I hope to be able to see everyone again soon!
