What a Crazy Week…

This week has been extremely hectic!

Monday started off with Spencer not feeling very well. He was somehow able to convince me to take Saylen to work. This actually worked out really well, and Spencer came and picked him up around 11:00 – after he got a little extra sleep!

By Tuesday, Spencer was feeling even worse. I figured since Monday went so well, I would take Saylen with me again. This wasn’t such a success. I had hoped to keep him with me most of the day, but Saylen had a different idea. If he was laying down, he wanted to be picked up, and if I was holding him, he wanted to squirm about!! After some frustration, and lack of productivity, I had to have Spencer come pick him up! I have WAY too much to do this time of year! Spencer had to work before I got off, so my mom came over and stayed with Saylen until I got home. As soon as I got home, we turned around and headed to the grocery store. After shopping, cooking, cleaning up, and talking to an old friend comparing baby stories, I was done for the night.

Yesterday was yet another super busy day. My mom’s, cousin’s, daughter’s, daughter (I’m totally serious about that relationship chain)  is having her Bat Mitzvah this weekend, and my grandma insisted on buying me a new outfit. After a full day of work, I yet again cooked dinner, found time for another old friend, then headed off to the mall with Saylen and my mom. We closed the place down, in fact we practically had to be escorted out the already locked doors, but it was SO nice to buy something in my new (but not permanent) size that wasn’t from Old Navy!! I even signed up for a Nordstrom debit card – which is probably only exciting to those that grew up on Nordstrom!

Thursdays are my day to work away from the office. Today I had a work meeting and took Saylen along. He slept almost the entire time, and was totally well behaved when he was awake! After the meeting I headed to the studio where Michelle, a co-worker, played with Saylen while I got more work done. We ended up staying there until almost 7:00, while Saylen got to meet some new people and I got a couple of things done that could only be done at the later hours. Lucky for me there were leftovers, and Saylen headed straight to bed after his bath, giving me a few extra minutes to update the blog!

Tomorrow my aunt/boss is having surgery. We wish her the best, and promise to hold down the fort while she’s out! But what does that really mean… another long day of work for a mom that wasn’t planning on being full time quite yet! I love my job, and I love that everyone there is so supportive of our family, but yay for vacation next week!!
