Noooo sleep for the wicked, money don't grow on trees

So we've been trying a couple of things to get into a routine. And just when I thought I had it figured out, I get thrown through a loop. So. Here I am. 5 am. With a wide awake baby while the rest of the house sleeps.

I know I wouldn't trade being called mommy for any job title in the world. And I'm doing what I've wanted to do, stay home with my children. But it's getting tiring when I still do all the work and if I ask for help I get "you wanted this". Yes, well, if I wanted to be a single stay at home mother.. I won't go there. He provides money. Which is needed to run things around here.

Which is why I am attempting to work from home by being a consultant for Jamberry nails. Any extra income would be great. And if I can profit enough from it come September and not go back to work or go back part time I'll be happy.

Curious to what I'm talking about?

Must establish a better routine!

How do you wear a child out that can't be that physical? One that is 7.5 months old but is doing things at a 5 month old's level (yay her adjusted age is 5 months today! ). Lainee has been the baby that slept from 11-7 after about a month of being home from nicu. Until the spica came along. Or growth spurts. But there's only been two of those so far. But since the spica she'll sleep more during the day and then get up a few times each night, or like tonight every hour on the hour since 1am - currently it's 4am. I guess I'll have to establish a better routine! Keep her awake longer and wake her from longer naps. This should be fun.

Only 2 weeks and 3 days left to see what were doing. Another cast or a brace.

Also, yesterday was the 4th. Our parents came over to swim and eat and then enjoy yard fireworks. It was a lot of fun. As much fun as everyone getting to swim except you, because you have to clip tabs off diapers to stuff. Yup.

5 days in feels like fifty.

Tonight is ending day 5 of this Spica Cast.  We've definitely have experienced major hurdles so far. The biggest being food. Today she closed on 20oz and at least 2oz in food. But her temperament is becoming better. Sleep is getting better. I think if we have another day below 20oz I'm calling her pediatrician.
