Shokufeh is... home

Progress

I guess the first sign of progress is that I'm posting within a week of my last entry. Shocking! MrMan is asleep, without my holding him. We'll see how long it lasts. Oh, how he fights the sleep in the daytime.

We did make it out of the house last Friday, just not in time to meet my coworkers, as was originally intended. But, the car started a hour or so later. So, we went to the mall. Had to have a little nursing session when we got there, to calm MrMan from the trauma of the ride. After that, he slept through my errands, picking Sam up from work, even dinner out. The latter was particularly impressive, since some carolers came through and were singing quite loudly and ringing bells. Oh, how I wanted them to move on. Not enough to act like another restaurant patron, who got up and yelled at them that not everyone celebrates Christmas....

Since Friday, MrMan and I have had additional adventures, some at home, some out. Of course, now he is awake and I'm confirming that my one-handed typing skills are lacking. So I will end with a high-five to MrMan and my boobs. The three of us, or I guess four of us, make a great team - at yesterday's pediatrician appointment we found out that MrMan gained two pounds in the past three weeks. Go team! (Sorry, arms....)
