Crowd sourcing for two totally unrelated things.

How is it only noon? 😅 Starting our day at 7 AM was super lame. It's going to be a rude awakening when summer ends and we all have to get back on a schedule.

I followed the Wonder Weeks app when Knox was a baby and it was always spot on for when his fussy phase before a leap would be. Looks like the same will be true for Lainey girl. It's day one and it has been long 😅 so much crying.

Feeling a little bit bummed tonight because the boys took off to the town's summer festival but it just didn't make sense for me and Lainey to tag along. They either would have had to wait for her next feeding before we could all leave or I'd have to drive separate and wouldn't be able to stay long. She and I did at least get out of the house for a little bit this morning while they were at wrestling camp. I don't want to wish away these newborn days but the loss of freedom and spontaneity is hard. It will be nice when she's a little bigger/nursing less/I've either figured out a pumping routine or ditched the shield so it's easier to nurse on the go. It's also getting me in my feels because Cole is getting so much one on one time with Knox and doing so many fun things with him. I just really hope he doesn't look back on this time and resent me for being so tied up with his sister.

There was not enough sleep happening in this house last night but I already had plans to go to my parents house today so Knox could swim. Loaded the kids up on my own this morning and made the 50 minute trek. Lainey slept the whole way which is always a win. Knox had a blast swimming. Overall it was a fun day but mannnn my eyes were heavy on the drive home. 🥱 I wish they lived just a little bit closer.
