2 weeks

So we are now two weeks into my mat leave and things seem to be going fairly well! ? I find that some days I barely have time to eat and other days I sit here trying to think of things to do. He seems to be getting into somewhat of a routine, he likes to stay up in the morning for a few hours and usually has a long nap between 11am and 3pm, then we usually go for a walk and he goes back to sleep around 8pm for the rest of the night (of course waking every 3 hours or so to eat but then he goes back to bed pretty easy). For the first two weeks I was writing down every time he ate and how much, how many bowel movements and wet diapers he had but I don't think I will do that anymore!? There are some days that I look at him and think he is so new and everything about this is new but then there are days that I feel like he has been here forever and I couldn't imagine life without him? It's so weird but I guess in a way he has been with me for 9 months!? If I go out shopping without him I feel like I'm missing something, like his little punches and gabs in me, or maybe it's just me missing his presence? I'm still not sure if I will be able to go back to work at the track and leave him for 8 hours with a sitter!? I still have a few weeks before the first race back so we will have to see how I am then!?

It has been really hot for the past couple days but surprising Jacob hasn't been too cranky about it, in fact I think the heat makes him sleepy and extra thirsty, so I feel like I have been changing more diapers then usual but at least I know he isn't dehydrated!

We don't really have too much planned for the next few days, we were suppose to go to a wedding out of town this weekend but have decided to stay home instead, he doesn't seem to like his car seat too much yet and after about an hour in the car he starts to get cranky. So instead I have dropped off some pictures to get developed (the birth pics - so I'm very excited to see them, I just hope that hubby took LOTS of pics!), they need to be picked up tomorrow and I received his birth certificate in the mail yesterday so now I can go get him his SIN number. Other then that I don't think there is anything else planned, I might try and do some visiting this week just to get out of the house. Or if it isn't too hot out I would like to do a little baking.

That's about all for now - I better go have lunch now, while he is still sleeping! :)
