Well, today was my first day home alone! I was so blessed to have my mom come and stay for a week and it was a lot of fun. She did tons of things with
Jordyn and since I was feeling well most of the week we were able to do things together too. We made cookies, watched movies and did a puzzle. Mom watched the girls one night so Wayne and I could go out Christmas shopping and then watched them again the next day so we could pick out our tree. Thankfully my mom and I get along really well now (who would've thought it) and so the week was very enjoyable and I was able to get some much needed rest, although not as much as Wayne or my mom wanted me too!
Sadly, she left on Saturday and Wayne was already back to work so today I was home alone. I thought it was going to be horrible and everything would fall apart, and while I'm sure I'll have those days, thankfully today wasn't one of them!
Landyn was great and followed her eating and sleeping schedule, completely
unfazed and unaware that anything was different from any other day. That made everything else go smoothly.
Jordyn on the other hand had a rough day even though she pretty much had Mommy to herself. I think now she is going to have to adjust to now having Grandma or Gram to dote on her, it's just Mommy and life is going to start to get back to normal. We survived though and while she was whiny a lot we also had some fun moments.
She really enjoys helping me with
Landyn. She loves to tell me she's crying and give
Landyn her pacifier. She likes to tuck her in with a blanket and help me change her diaper by pulling out the wipes. One of the things she really likes to do is share her toys
with Landyn and pile them on top of her.
Jordyn also got to have a pillow in her lap and hold
Landyn today and she liked that a lot. We tried to get a picture when Daddy came home but it was
unsuccessful. Since
Landyn is such a great baby and sleeper
Jordyn and I were also able to have a lot of time just the two of us, spent reading and singing and playing with her new kitchen set. She's also learning to treat her baby like Mommy treats
Landyn. Her baby has a diaper we constantly put on and off. She also gets to ride in the swing and we swaddle her baby tightly when it's time to rest. It's been really fun seeing how
Jordyn reacts to
Landyn and how much she really enjoys her. So needless to say we survived the first day and I am looking forward to what the rest of the week might hold!
