We still don't have internet at our house! It's so frustrating. Apparently we have an upload and download threshold (didn't know that until it went out) and we went over our upload limit. How, I have no clue. I called the service and asked them what's up with our connection and they said that we were at 130% for our uploads. I told them the only information we ever put on the internet is this blog and we've never gone over our limit and I hadn't done anything out of the ordinary so I don't understand. I need to call them again because I don't even see how it got to 130%, wouldn't it have cut off at 100?
Well I'm officially back at work...and I LOVE it! Monday was my first day and then yesterday Korbyn had her 2-month well check. It's so nice because I can check on her whenever I want and I'm still at work. Even though I knew she was just down the hall I still checked on her like 10 times! And amazingly every single time I went in there she had a smile on her face, it was awesome. And I love the two girls that are in the infant room, they are so wonderful and they do such a great job. I told Mrs. Nichole (the lead teacher) that here lately she hasn't been on much of an eating schedule but if they could get her back on one that would be great. They had to feed that little rascal every two hours! And she would still eat 4 ounces at a time! She's gonna be a little chunk no doubt. I then told her that I've noticed if she sleeps more than 5 hours she has a harder time staying asleep at night. I told them of course if she's sleepy and she falls asleep let her, but don't TRY to put her to sleep. Towards the late morning Nichole calls me in the office and she says "you meant 5 hours at a time right?" and I was like "no in a day!" She just laughed and said "oh, ok!" And they did a good job on that too, I think she only slept 3 hours all day. She obviously loves daycare, well so far, and I'm so thankful for that. The days leading up to us going back were pretty stressful for me as I'm sure it is for every new mom. It's not that I was afraid they weren't going to take care of her (I run the place so I KNOW that happens :) I just start thinking all these thoughts like, what if she starts fussing and they don't know how she likes to be held to soothe her etc. But now I know she's in great hands and I have nothing to worry about!
Korbyn has been a great sleeper for a while now. She sleeps 7 hours a night no problem. I remember the first night she did it I woke up on my own around 2:30 and I was thinking "that's weird, I haven't woke up by myself in a long time" I looked at the clock and realized she hadn't woke up yet. I ripped the blanket off and literally ran down the hall into her room! There she was just sleeping away. I soon realized that on the nights I gave her a bath she would sleep 7 hours, but the nights that I skipped (we were doing every other night) she would still wake up about every 3 hours. So needless to say she gets a bath every night now! It's becoming so much easier now. She gets a bath, a bottle, and goes in her crib. Sometimes she'll still be awake when I put her down but she knows it's bedtime and she eventually drifts off without a peep. I'm so proud of my little girl :)
She weighs 11lbs. 9oz. I would have thought it to be a little higher than that so I was really surprised. And she's 21.5" She also had to get 3 shots and an oral vaccine, it was awful! They tell you to get real close to them and hold down their arms. I was watching her face the entire time and she got that first one (she got them all within about 5 seconds) and her eyes got real big and then by that last one she was screaming and tears were rolling down her face! Of course I cried, and just thinking about it again almost makes me tear up. I actually should get the award for "worst mother in the entire world" for what I did next. I got her ears peirced right after that. I guess I was just thinking that I'm already here and who knows when I'll be back, and she's already pissed off anyway so I might as well get all the hurt out of the way. So we go to the mall (my dr. said she doesn't do it but she would personally let the experts do it anyway) and I hold her in my lap and of course she screams again! And then I couldn't really comfort her because we had to get back in the car and rush home because I had a meeting at 6:15. So I dropped her off at memaw coates' (not sure how we're doing that yet because they are both memaws!) and then I got back as soon as I could because my stomach was literally hurting just thinking about how much pain she must be in. She ate about 7p.m. and I picked her up around 8 and we went home took a bath and she was just so fussy the entire time. Then I tried to give her a bottle but she didn't want any of it. I was holding her and she would doze off and then she would just wake up crying in pain (this is with tylenol) and then doze off again, ugh it was horrible! So I put her in her crib and she slept until 5 o'clock this morning!!!! I did notice though that last night when I would mess with her earrings she didn't mind that at all, but if I accidentally touched either one of her thighs she would jerk and then start screaming so I know she was miserable because of the shots, but I'm sure the earrings didn't help the situation. When she woke up this morning she was all smiles though so hopefully she's feeling much better.
I brought my camera to post some pictures but of course my cord is at the house. So hopefully I'll remember to bring it after lunch and I can put some pictures up.
