Yesterday was the 2nd day of heavy clouds and rain and running out of power. After running some errends, we went to Starbucks and got set up just before 4pm. By 8:35pm, all I had managed to do was order diapers and 2 onesies. 😑 I knew which diapers I wanted, but it got complicated with the shipping since USPS doesn't deliver to us, and last time I had to catch it at the post office before they returned them!
I eventurally figured out how to add those Amazon pickup boxes, but then I found out the diaper box was apparently too heavy...
In those over 4 hours, I also tended to our son. Fed him two or three times, changed two diapers, one of which was a blow out where I also needed to clean the onesie he was wearing. I then put him in a different onesie that whenever he wears, he's super fussy, which is not his normal self!
So, after dealing with that fussing for a while, I gave up, took off the onesie, and wrapped him in the ring sling carrier fabric, cause it's long enough to make into a kind of shirt. Then I walked around with him for a couple of minutes, watching his eyes get sleepy, then put him in the car seat, stuck my finger in his crying mouth, and rocked him gently until he finally fell asleep!!! YAY!
After that, he slept for hours! He only woke up when I took him out of the car seat at home!
So, my plan of quickly ordering some diapers and onesies and then getting to work on editing more of my husbands upcoming book, "How to build deeply authentic relationships with yourself and people" did not quite work out as I hoped.
How was your first day of the year?! 😃
