It's my last full week of staying at home :( We're adjusting our routine somewhat so that Seth's not getting too many bottles (and thus wreaking some havoc on my milk supply). Basically I'll be feeding him any time I am at home, including the middle of the night. But Eric will put him back to bed after he eats and take care of any pajama or diaper changes that might come up. I'm already stressing about my ability to get away to pump while I'm at work, so we'll see how things go. Maybe Seth will be one of those babies who doesn't eat much while Mom's not there. He sure has been a high maintenance bottomless pit this afternoon.
My mom bought Seth a high chair this weekend, which has been GREAT. Now I can have Seth in the kitchen with me without him being on the floor or taking up counter space. It also has a 5 pt harness, unlike the Bumbo or the bouncy chair, so I don't have to worry about him escaping. I can also spread toys out on the tray to amuse him while I cook or eat, and the tray is far enough away that he has to reach for stuff if he wants it. Thanks Gramby!!
We finally canceled our digital cable today. We didn't actually turn it off completely, we only downgraded to "limited" cable because there was a deal, and we would have lost our multi-product discount on the internet service. After 6 months the "deal" will expire and we'll re-evaluate our situation. Football season could be an issue if we have no TV at all, so my guess is we'll keep the networks at least. But still, no more Food Network or ESPN, so that alone will leave us lots more time for this:
and this:
I already feel like I have a lot more free time. Instead of sitting on my butt watching TV I can move my butt and lose these last 10 pesky pounds! I've noticed that Seth is pretty enthralled when I dance around a little so maybe he will be curious enough to watch me do some of my workout DVDs.
T- minus 20 hours until I get my DROID. Oops, there goes all my free time ;0)
