Today we had our first successful trip to town. We decided that we needed to get out of the house and as a "push present" Danny decided that I should get a nice new fridge! We went to several stores and after a diaper change in the car, trying to feed in the back seat of the Expedition and having a fussy baby on our hands, I was about to throw in the towel and head home. But we decided since we were already in town we might as well hit Sears to see if they had any good deals on fridges. Marissa was cranky and I thought about just sitting in the car while Danny picked out a fridge, but then it hit me...
Remember that cute pink and brown sling posted below? That thing is a LIFE SAVER! I put Marissa in it, gave the kid a boob, threw a blanket over me for some discretion and off we went refrigerator shopping! Yep, I nursed in public for the first time today and it wasn't that bad. I'm not even sure the sales person could tell. She was quite content and nursed until she fell asleep. Ah, sweet success!
Giving birth gives you a whole new outlook on life. When your baby is hungry, you are willing to do what it takes to make sure she is a happy, fed baby! Don't get me wrong, I still like to keep some decency and I'm still modest as ever, but you gotta do what you gotta do!
It was a busy day! We got home a little later than what we wanted but Danny fixed a yummy dinner of chicken fajitas while I fed, bathed, changed and got Marissa in her jammies. I think we make a pretty good team!
Time to kick back with my honey and relax before the next feeding. I don't want to count my eggs before they hatch, but I think Danny and I are adjusting pretty well to this whole parenting thing!
Good night blogger world!
aww haha that's awesome you guys got a new fridge! Lol and you both seemed so natural with her, she couldn't ask for better parents!
