Lilly Rose is learning all about how to take advantage of rainy days - with the tropical depression/storm bands (it's been a bit since I watched the news!) that came through New Orleans yesterday night and today, Lilly has been taking advantage of the dreary day. She's been super sleepy today. And it threw me off, as I really wanted to stay on the schedule, every three hours she's supposed to be eating, then napping. Well, I'd get her up, or should say attempt to get her up, change her diaper, then try to feed her. Sometimes, as with the 10 AM feeding it would go smoothly. Other times, as with the 1PM and 4PM, not so much. For someone who fought going to sleep last night, she was sure fighting being awake this afternoon. Would try to wake her, would play with her, would sometimes need to put a diaper wipe (the cool feeling) over her body. One time even put her skin to skin, to try to wake her. Another time would just put her down, let her get 'angry and cry' and then get her to eat. Ahh the multitude of things. And I love structure and being in control, and with her on a schedule, I felt both of those. So when she veered off, and being sleepy, I begin to doubt myself, and I worry about the upcoming feedings and bedtime - will she eat? will she sleep? Only time will tell.
On another note, only changed my shirt twice today - and no poo on any item of clothing or piece of furniture. Nice!
