First Times

So I was telling you about your teeth...Thursday was the first time I gave you any medicine. I bought infant Tylenol and then called the Doctor to make sure it was the right thing to do. They said yes and told me your dose. It wasn't a big deal for you at all...in fact it made you feel better :)

Mommy likes to go to the YMCA to exercise. I haven't been doing much of that at all these last 3 months. I especially like taking Spinning classes. In fact, shortly before you were born I was certified to teach Spinning. Unfortunately I blew out my knee in August and had to have surgery. That pretty much put everything on hold.
Anyway, back to the Y...I signed you up to go into the daycare center there at about 6 weeks. However, I have been having a hard time actually bringing you there. It's not that I don't trust them, it's just hard for me to leave you with someone else.
On Saturday I put my workout clothes on and decided that when you take your nap we will go there. This way you won't even know I brought you in. So first we went and saw Lana at her Florist to talk about flowers for the Gala I am helping put on. From there we went straight to the Y. My goal was to do 30 minutes of cardio. Short workout for our first time. When I brought you in they saw that I was nervous so they gave me a pager. Exactly 30 minutes after working out I went back to get you. You were not in your stroller, which surprised me, I fully expected you to be sleeping. Instead, you were laying like a Queen in a cushy swing in the infant room. Right next to you was one other infant in her carrier and then on the floor in front of both of you was the caretaker. She was playing with both of you and you were smiling and having fun. You didn't even notice me come in. It was at that point that I started to cry...not sure why...it's just what I do! I get emotional pretty easily...certainly when it comes to you...it's just because I love you so much!
