Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays...

After hopefully getting into a rhythm last night, Annie & Mag-pie slept a bit longer while I got up and moved around the house.  I only have a week left before I go back, so I figure that I need to get back into the swing of getting up early.  I didn't get up super early, but, given the times we have been rolling out of bed for the past few days, 9AM was early. 

I showered for the day and noticed a voicemail from one of my bosses at work.  I had no idea what his message meant, so I checked my e-mail, responded to e-mails, & made a phone call or two.  Believe me, I didn't want to do anythnig work related during my time to learn my new daughter's habits & traits, but since I was up early and I didn't have to go in to do it, I figured it wouldn't hurt. 

After vacuuming the 1st floor, emptying the dishwasher, and having a little breakfast of my own, I got another work related phone call. 

We experienced a weird thing Monday afternoon with Maggie: after she finished nursing, we burped her as usual, and we changed her.  I held her for a while, and then I decided to put her in the boppy pillow so we could watch her, yet still keep our hand free to eat lunch, etc.  Annie had just sat down, and we were both looking at Maggie, when she spit up (not too big a deal).  But then, it was like a faucet was turned on, and it seemed like her entire last two meals came spilling out of her mouth like a fountain!  This was a bit shocking for the new parents, so we cleaned her up, took her temperature (normal), and just monitored her.  She must have just eaten way too much because she was fine for the rest of the day. 

Speaking of the rest of the day, I got one final work-related call that resulted in a trip downtown for about an hour & a half, including travel.  As much as I hated to leave, I had to go, as the issue at work was something that I had to sign an affidavit, which must be notorized.  We called Gigi (Annie's Mom) and she came over right before I left. 

After I did my thing downtown, I picked up dinner on the way home, and Granddad met us at the house for dinner with Gigi.  If none of you have had Jimmy John's, I'd recommend it.  It's pretty decent.

That was our day...not typical at all, but it was a good day nonetheless. 

And now, pictures!

Faux Hawk Maggie!



This is how we end our day.  Maggie's under the blue SyFy blanket.
