Man I'm behind! So I have to blog weeks 55 & 56. Then this weekend is 57. Just to give you an idea of where this falls on the time line. (And I will be less flowery in my descriptions, to hurry along).
55
*Waking up early. His time was getting earlier. First it was 545, 530 &515 then 5!! So end of the week, when peggy watched him while we did the starlight run, she put him to bed later. He still woke up earlier sunday but we decided we would just try later bed time the next week.
*Forestry center. Peggy took us, with Jameson to the world forestry center. It was pretty cool and Dean had a great time. They had some exhibits and sensory/hands on things. It was pretty empty so Dean was able to just walk around and Jameson has a blast with Dean. And Peggy added us to her pass so we can go anytime!
*one day, Dean had diarrhea and it lacked a tiny bit. Where it leaked, he got these weird bumps, that kind of looked like bug bites. They were raised and inflamed. Punk, not red. But he didn't have any inside his diaper. Then later that day, they relaxed and turned darker, red. Then the next day, they turned into scabs. They naked up and that was that. Still not sure what it was.
*I've been struggling with the concept of letting go of my milk and trusting he would get nutrients from milk and other foods. So I called and got great reassurances by his dr. I feel better and the mental road block has been lifted and I've been making good progress slowly switching my milk for regular milk. And Dean is doing pretty well with it. I do notice he gets gassy and constipated if we make.too big of a jump, which is why I'm doing it gradually.
*Dean knows how to say Neigh when asked what a horse says. He shakes his head and kind of sounds like hes laughing, because whats what I do haha. Oops.
*He got his first scraped knee! He didn't cry or anything but it was bleeding a little bit. He reopened it at the rose festival so I gave him his first bandaid (that wasn't from shots).
*Starlight run!!! Saturday, we went to the rose festival during the day, walked around and enjoyed the carnival and Saturday market. Then we dressed up and peggy babysat while we went to the run! If you remember, it's the run in the evening, along the parade route where thr starlight parade goes right after. It's a night time parade so it's got lights and stuff. (Same concept as electrical parade, but a lot less cool haha. But still really cool!) We did this run two years ago but it was my first time and I didn't realize people dressed up. I was soooo bummed! So this year (skipped last year since I was only 3-4 weeks post partum) I told KR that's what I wanted for my bday present. So I went to dollar tree and got patriotic stuff and KR was such a good sport to dress up, wearing a plastic, non-breathable hat and everything. Haha. We had so much fun!!! And we got to do it with danny and emily falk! (Reagan's parents haha). I was proud I didn't stop but my time wasn't as fast as my best 5k time. But soooo fun! We took advantage of the fact we both had babysitters, and went to watch a bit of the parade! We felt so free! Haha. It was our first time out with friends without Dean. I don't wish to not have Dean though!!! But it was fun to be a little carefree.
*back to monday, memorial day, we went to the Rose gardens. We packed a lunch and it was so nice out! Dean loves running around at the park. He is quite a wanderer though. Yikes! But I stick to him like glue, so all is well haha.
Ok on to week 56 haha
