What a crazy week this has been... Labor day weekend and the end of my maternity leave!
Let's start with our busy weekend!
Saturday was sooo busy! We started off the day by getting Owen dressed up in his Badger outfit and off to the Badger game we went! Eric's tailgate was in full force when we got there. The age demographic of the tailgate has changed slightly, with almost everyone there having a kid or having one on the way! It was great to see everyone at the tailgate... the Becks, the Morettis, and the Hubers were in from out of town!
After a great tailgate, we headed down to the game. The Badgers didn't look too good, but Owen and Mason did great!
Saturday night was just as busy as we headed to our neighbor's house for some burgers. They had already eaten though, so we had sun chips and rice crispy treats for dinner! Yum!
We were exhausted after that crazy day, so we were excited when Owen slept through the night!
Sunday was equally as busy! After church, Nick took me to target to get my first Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL) of the season (thanks for the heads up Heather)! Then after lunch, we headed to the zoo with the Kandikos! It was fun. Hot but fun! And since we were very tired after a crazy day, we were very excited Owen slept through the night again!
On Labor day, our coffee maker died... :( #whattimedoestargetopen
Later that day, after the coffee dilemia was fixed, the Nardis came over to play! Dexter and Eve were so good with Owen.
Then reality set in... I had to get my pump ready to take to work. I pouted the rest of the night while finding my name badge, pulling my lunch box out, and trying to remember my passwords. Then, I stopped fighting it and just went to bed.
Good news! Owen learned to roll from back to belly! Ok, he did it once... while swaddled on Monday night... and he was not happy! He has enjoyed rolling onto and sleeping on his side since he learned he could do it. He has only rolled completely over that once, but it was enough for me to switch him to a sleep sack. I didn't know if he would do well unswaddled, but he sleeps pretty well still.
Tuesday went way better than I thought it would. I think it was easier on me since I get to sneak out of the house before Owen gets up. Nick has to be the bad guy and take him to day care. I get to be the good guy! :)
Come Tuesday night, I was exhausted. I wanted to watch the Michelle Obama speech, but my eyes had different ideas. Good thing I had Wednesday off and got to play with my little guy (and nap)!
Back to work on Thursday... boo!
Friday was fun! Nick has a lot of PTO and has been asked to use some of it, so he took the day off. I worked an evening shift, so it was nice to spend the day with my boys and to not have to take Owen to day care for 3 hours. The boys did great together! Bedtime was a little rough, but they'll get it down! Everyone was fed and in bed asleep when I got home at 11:30!
It was a good week overall. It was tough on emotions and short on sleep, but it was nice to get back to work and start figuring out how to be a working mom.
