5 weeks to go... actually 4 weeks and 5 days. I would have to say that even though there were a lot a boring/lonely times, the past week went by fairly quickly. I'm still working on finding things to do. I've started a craft project, but haven't gotten very far. I need to get better at managing my time. There are times when I'll feed Jax and he'll fall asleep after. Instead of putting him down, I'll just sit and relax with him laying on me. Then when he wakes up, I have to interact with him and take care of him. And I don't mean for that to sound like a bad thing. I love being his mommy! But I'm just not great at working around his schedule. I need to take advantage of the times when he sleeps. I did, however, put him in the jumperoo at church on Sunday and he loved it! He's barely tall enough for his feet to touch, but they do enough for him to move around. He's not quite big enough for the seat so I had to put a blanket behind him to prop him forward. But whatever... he'll grow into it! I'm totally going to keep my eye out for a used one because that would make my life so much easier! I would have something to put him in that will entertain him. Yes! But I don't have $100 for a new one, so hopefully used one will pop up.
I wish I could post some pictures, but Ryan took the camera to France and I've been using my phone to take pictures. I have no clue how to connect my phone and download pictures to my computer. I will have to do a catch-up pictures post when Ryan gets back. (In just over one month... oh goodness that sounds so much longer than saying "4 1/2 weeks"!)
PS- Ryan's birthday is Wednesday, so email him a HAPPY 25th BIRTHDAY!!!
I got my "Bounce Bounce Baby" from Target for under $40. Once you get one...you will find your hands free a lot more!
