Baby Face: I know you're probably completely enthralled with that beautiful little face because, let's be honest here, my baby is ridiculously cute. But look closer because…NO FEEDING TUBE! (more on that later but it is gone.for.good!!)
Wrap It Up: I use a nursing cover that Darcy made me to drape over Scarlette when I take her to the doctor b/c of the strict rules of our quarantine. So mostly it just looks awkward, as though I am walking around breastfeeding all the time. And because of the fact that it is, you know, very obviously meant to cover up a woman with a baby latched on to her bewbies I figured I wouldn't have to worry about anyone getting too close.
Right. This lady at the eye doctor is all "Oh I want to see the baby!" and as I opened my mouth to explain why I wouldn't be showing off my little one, she reached over and LIFTED THE COVER. Just lifted it right up! I mean, what if I had been nursing under there? People are crazy about babies. It's like, they see a baby and all sense of personal space and boundaries goes flying out of their heads. And I'm all new-mommy-with-a-quarantined-baby thinking "GERMS! GERMS EVERYWHERE! STAY AWAY WITH YOUR GERMS, GERMY MCGERMERSON!"
This Week In Review: Yay Lauren Alaina! And thank you for the decorating tips– someone even sent me a great mockup of the space that I plan on taking shopping with me. The publishing series over at LLS is so fun, I can't wait to share the tips from some of our guest posters with y'all.
Sleep Deprived: I made all of Scarlette's appointments for today at the exact. same. time. Apparently, I have a subconcious love of ten fifteen in the morning.
Birthday Countdown: Dear Jeff, there are only 16 shopping days left until my birthday. I bought myself a calendar. See above. Love, your wife.
