Mr. Frog Man

There is not much more to report this week. The big things Mr. Frog Man and I did this week were to go visit his cousins Madison, Jack, and Kate at Aunt Kim's house and take a trip grocery shopping at Wal-mart all by ourselves. Woohoo! Isn't it funny that these are big accomplishments these days? The first day that I was able to take a shower when I was home alone with Cade, I thought I had conquered the world.

I thought Cade's sleeping was getting better, but turns out that he just had a couple of random good nights. This week I almost felt like his sleeping had gotten worse. Most of the week, he averaged about 4-5 hours total during the night and a few 5 minute cat naps while holding him during the day. How does he not just go into a coma from exhaustion you ask? That is what I have been trying to figure out for 2 1/2 months...

You are doing amazing! It's hard at first but I promise it gets better! He is so cute! I wish I could see you both! Take care of yourself and call me!

Showers when you're at home alone with the baby ARE a big deal! Taylor is pretty good now to not get into too much trouble while I'm in the shower, but I don't know what I'll do when the new baby comes. I definitely won't be leaving those two alone together- that's for sure!

oh and grocery shopping with the baby? not one of my favorites either. I still hate doing it, but you do what you have to do, and now I just try to take plenty of snacks to bribe her with.

LOVE the frog outfit! Especially the shoes!
I remember putting the bassinet or the bouncy seat in the bathroom with me to take a shower. I was so nervous!
