This week has been so CRAZY!! I started working with one of my best friends for Saladmaster, which is healthy cookware, it is amazing and is a product that really sells itself. What we do is cooking demonstrations, how to cook with out oils, fats and waters in your food to keep the nutrition in and the fat out. So on Friday we went to a dinner to observe and learn ( which meant I left Leilani for about 4 hours with daddy), Saturday we had an event to recruit people to do dinners for, which was from 12-5 plus commute (7 hours away from my baby). Sunday I started dental assisting school (12 weeks of no church I was so bummed) from 9 AM-4:30PM (usually 6PM), So all day away from my baby. Monday another dinner. (our first... We did awesome! but another 4.5 hours from Leilani). When I got home I had a breakdown... I felt like such a terrible mother! I have been gone so much from my baby, and now she is not only fighting Dusty going to sleep but now me... Tuesday Amy and I had training, So I just took her with me after crying on and off all day about how bad I felt for leaving her so much... (I think postpartum is catching up to I cried way too much yesterday!) Today, our second dinner, We did great, a few small bumps but we are still learning... so another 6 hours form Leilani. tomorrow I have school from 6-10PM, Friday we have our third dinner, Saturday we have a lunch and a dinner, Sunday I have school again and the breakdown may come again sometime in between all that... But In the midst of all this I have such a wonderful supportive husband who is doing great with Leilani, and trying to help me deal with my emotional breakdowns, he is so Awesome!!! Leilani is also doing great she is handling this all really great! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful little family! I love them so much!!
On a different note Leilani turned 4 months old on the 21st of January, She is doing great, she is right on track. rolling over lifting and holding her head, reaching out for mommy and daddy... She weighed in at 14.4 pounds, so she went from under the 10th percentile at birth to about the 50th. she was 231/4inches (I think), also in the 50th percentile. She is not on solids yet, but starting to notice us take stuff to our mouth and reaching out for it so maybe one of these days we'll try out some cereal... She is still sleeping all the way through the night, sometimes better than me (j/k). She is getting to where she will take a 1.5-2 hour nap in her cradle... I am so proud of her, she is such an awesome baby! Dusty and I are so grateful to have her!!
