Play Dates & Outings

Now that we are starting to get into a routine and I'm able to shower and eat on most days. We have started to go out on little field trips. Last week we had our very first play date, with Nolan's friend Sebastian who was born 6 days before Nolan. Sebastian shared his elder wisdom with Nolan, and Nolan shared his Mylicon drops. On Friday we went on a 4 hours shopping spree so that i could get a few pieces of clothes that actually fit me instead of falling off (maternity clothes) or cutting off my circulation (pre pregnancy clothes). Nolan slept the entire time, allowing me to find a new pair of jeans which are now too big (yeah breastfeeding!) and a few tops.

On Monday we drove down to Tacoma to visit YaYa so that she could show off her grandson at work. Nolan mostly cooperated but since i left his new best friend binky in the car he lost his cool 45 minutes in so we headed back home.

Then on Wednesday we went back to the mall to hang out with Erin, Sebastian and her 5 year old son Sam. I needed to take back the previously purchased jeans and get a few birthday items. My new mother mentor, Erin showed me her favorite kid/baby stores and didn't judge me for getting that pretzel...thanks Erin!

Next week is not so exciting. Since Nolan is a month old on Monday we both have our one month check ups. But I'm sure we can squeeze some trouble in there somewhere!
