Today was the first time that I was able to take Burton down to the Pier in the morning, and it felt so great! After 2 weeks of having no set schedule, it was so nice to do something that slightly resembled our "old" life.
Now, don't get me wrong, I love having Jocelyn in our lives, but it has been quite difficult to have no continuity in our lives. Our old schedules are out the door, and we are at the mercy of our 2 week old little love (all of you parents out there are just laughing at us, and I'm sure asking "well, what did you expect?!!) For me, that has been one of the hardest things to get used to. Not being able to accomplish what I use to, and not being able to count on doing anything.
This morning, I'm on my way to my first "Baby Mama" group over in Tribeca. It's pretty exciting, one- b/c it's 9:15am and I am ready to head out the door, and two b/c once again, Chris took the night feedings and allowed me to sleep for a few consecutive hours (ahhh.... that feeling is amazing!) This group is made up of all mothers with children born from Oct- Dec 2009, so all the babies are right around the same age. Should be fun!
yeah there is nothing quite like children to show you that making a schedule is futile...its all about fly by the seat of your pants!! have fun at Baby Mama's!!
