Sunday - I worked on Sunday. Derick completed a sink project, which looks AMAZING compared to what it did look like. Jake hung out with his Nana so Derick could work on that sink situation.

| And after the completed project. Ahhhhh. This makes me so happy... a SHINY kitchen sink. She's a beaut! Along with the extra storage Derick created underneath the sink. He made me happy. |
Monday - was pretty chilly in Tulsa-land. A couple girls that I used to work with (the ones that were pregnant at the same time as me) all went to the mall and had lunch, then let our little ones play in the little play area. It was good sweet times. I love getting together with girls from our girls-that-had-babies-at-the-same-time-group. It is so fun watching our little ones grow up together!! Then afterward, Jake and I did a little bargain shopping. I had a Groupon to use up at Barnes & Noble... I got J an adorable backpack.
Tuesday - I think Jake and I went grocery shopping this day. In the afternoon, we met up with Brooklin, Jake's aunt (Derick's sister). She lives in Tulsa and is a nanny for a set of twins that are a year older than Jake. We took the kids to a park to play around. It was fun. :)
Wednesday - Whew! That one was a doozy! Jake had the last of his 12 months vaccines because we do one at a time, this caught him up... until next month when we start all over with 15 month vaccines. He rocked it. I have found that if I keep a little sucker handy for right as he's getting the injection, he doesn't cry but about 10 seconds. I know other kids go through worse; but I'm pretty sure that anything that hurts my baby and causes him to look at me with those pitiful eyes as if he were begging me to do something to help him... yeah, I'm pretty sure it still kills this momma. Those sweet babies are so trusting of their mommas, aren't they?! So presh. Anyway, the sucker did the trick. Then after that... we went over to the L&D unit at Saint Francis, where I used to work. We visited with my sweet former co-workers. I miss them!

THEN, we had lunch with one of my old co-worker friends, Keirsten. She was actually Jake's nurse when he was born. :) Then, I was on call at work at 3 and they were extremely busy and asked me to come in early. So I had to call my mother-in-law (who lives at least an hour away) and my sister-in-law to come over to the house to keep Jake while I worked a little. While at work, we did FOUR deliveries in 2 hours. That would not be unheard of at my old place of work where they staff 8-10 nurses and 3 techs and several nursery nurses. Here, we had 2 nurses, 1 tech and 1 nursery nurse! It was CRAZY!!! But the time definitely flew by, that's for sure!
Thursday - we were going to go to the park to play with friends and babies from our little group, but Jake hadn't had a good napping day all week, and we have a busy weekend ahead of us so he won't be napping well all weekend either. He gets fussier by the day (not bad, but it's not the best Jake can be) when he hasn't had at least one normal day. So, we opted out and I cleaned the house. Which was a disaster after the busy week we had and the sink project Derick completed over the weekend. Oh, and I caught a nap in there too. :) Oh, yes... I love naps. My mom and dad came up to stay the night and stay with Jake today while I worked. We took Jakey for a walk and then had delicious dinner. I made chicken lettuce wraps from a recipe a facebook friend had posted. Let me say this... if you like Pei Wei chicken lettuce wraps, you woulda loved it! Yummo! It has now been added to my menu. AND it's super easy.
Which brings us to today. Boring. I'm at work. That's it.
Busy weekend ahead of us. Woohoo!
Happy weekend, friends!!!
