Vaccination Day

Yesterday went pretty well. Cate and I made it to my mom's group in the morning. The women there are great, so it always makes our day go better. We then went with Chaz to meet Cate's daycare teachers. They both seem great and I'm feeling pretty good about Cate starting daycare on Monday. She'll only have to do part-days next week, so it will be a good transition for us (I hope). We then went up to my office and moved about 3/4 of my belongings to my new office down the hall. Cate had a meltdown before I could finish... in all fairness we had been out and about too long. So, I'll have to finish that project next week.

Today started on the best note ever. Cate ate last night at 9:30pm and slept from 10pm-5am! That is 7 hours for those of you that are counting. This means that I got 6 hours of sleep in a row for the first time since a couple months before she was born. I have no doubt that she will not sleep so well every night yet, but I'm feeling much better today.

Finally, today was Cate's two month vaccination day. We went and got her shots around noon. She of course screamed the second the shots began. I shed a couple of tears while she screamed and screamed. Thankfully, however, I took the advice of the women in my mom's group who encouraged me to feed her immediately afterwards. She screamed right until we started breastfeeding. She ate quietly for 10 min and then fell asleep and slept the way home. Since we've been home, she's been sleepy but too fussy to fall asleep. In fact, I'm holding & bouncing the grumpy bear right now. I think we may have a grumpy afternoon/evening, but otherwise we seem to be dong fine. I hope this is the worst of it.

Two months - I cannot how believe how fast she's growing. Where does the time go?
