Snowy Days

The snow keeps falling here, and so do the temperatures! On my way to work this morning, it was 4 degrees. Yikes! I've forgotten how much I love having a garage now that I don't have one. Luckily, I can put BD in the pack in play for a few minutes while I get the car running and get all our stuff loaded up so that she doesn't have to get into a completely cold car.

She slept great last night. She went down right at 8:30 and slept until 6:45 except for a 2 minute stretch when she fussed in her crib. I love the fact that I don't have to get up with her anymore. As much as I love spending time with her, she's so much happier in the mornings when we're not up and moving throughout the night.

Today we're starting her on a new schedule! Instead of 5 oz every 3.5 hours (with 2 fruits, a veggie and oatmeal at set times during the day), she'll be eating 6 oz. every 4 hours (with the same amount of baby food). Her pretty typical schedule looks like this:

6:30/7:00- Nurse
9:00- Nap
11:00- 6 oz bottle and fruit
1:00- Nap
3:00- 6 oz. bottle and veggie
5:00- Nap
7:00- Oatmeal (with 3 oz. of formula) and Fruit (and veggie if she's still hungry)
8:30- Nurse and bedtime

Tonight, we are going to happy hour/dinner with a bunch of people from work for Rachel's last week (her last day isn't really until the 22nd). I've been surprisingly emotional about her leaving but I think I'm just a ball of emotion right now and she's a good outlet :) There's a lot of people going (including some spouses and most kids) so it's going to be a lot of fun I think.

Just 30 days to go!!!
