Day 96...the long week

Apr25

Here we go, round two...the second week back to work. This is "the long week" for Eli, and for Martyn to be at Janelle's house. He was in good spirits this morning, hopefully that's a sign it will be a good week.
Pretty easy day for mama at work, though I wasn't quite feeling myself later in the day. Earlier in the day however, despite the pouring rain, I was feeling like I had a little extra spring in my step. Eli said it was the Oatmeal he made for me this morning, but I don't know about that. As the day progressed, the sun came out and it warmed up a bit, and I started feeling kind of dizzy, a little bit here and there.
By the end of the day, I was almost feeling nauseated, but not quite. My techs brought me a parts problem that needed to be dealt with right away, right when I was about to pack up and leave for the day. It delayed me leaving on time, and I was late picking Martyn up, which annoyed me.
I didn't get home until about 5:15 or so, and that didn't really give me enough time to get the kitchen cleaned up so I could start dinner and have it ready when Eli got home....so I decided to or take out and have Eli pick it up. Tomorrow I'll be more prepared for dinner because I will not have to thaw anything, so that's a plus.
Janelle said Martyn was kind of fussy all day, and didn't really get a good solid nap. When we got home, I noticed once again, that he was just chewing on his hands like crazy...he's been doing that a lot for the past week or so. I think he's just about to start cutting teeth, even though I can't see any or feel any with my finger. Poor baby, that's gotta be painful....I remember when my wisdom teeth came in, it made me kind of cranky. At least I knew how to deal with it though.
I guess babies know how to deal with cutting teeth, it's something they all have to go through. Probably another one of those things they're just born knowing how to do, ha!
Martyn fell asleep in my lap after dinner and it was barely 8 o'clock. I decided I wasn't feeling so great still and would put him to bed, get my lunch in order, and then just go to bed. Poor boy, I had to change him before I laid him down and that woke him up.

He was NOT happy with being woken up. Eli had mentioned he didn't really get any baby time tonight, so I handed Martyn off to him with a clean diaper, so I could get my lunch together and get to bed.
Here's to the start of the "long week"....hoping it goes smoother the rest of the week, ha!
