So I remembered to take my pill again today. That's always an issue for me. I had just swallowed the pill when I turned around to Jake getting a pill out for me. It was very sweet. I had asked for his help in remembering to take my pill everyday.
I got home about 8am and played with Xander for a little bit before going to bed. I took a sleep aid to help me stay asleep and that really helped. I was in bed till a little after 2. I had a little discussion with Jake about his dad and that took a while (long story that I might get down in here). Then we started to set up a Magic game when Xander decided to wake up after a rather short afternoon nap.
He's been doing this lately, he goes down for his nap just fine, but then wakes up in 45 minutes to an hour and is super whiny. I've tried giving him some milk and just putting him back down to nap again, but I had an hour of screaming 2 days in a row before I figured out that wasn't going to work.
I made it through about an hour of his whiny today and started recognizing that I was feeling rather annoyed with him. Jake had been stuck alone parenting all day (and dealing with his dad) so I felt like it would be bad for me to just pass Xander back over to him. So we did a change of scenery and went to Target and Costco. Well, the Costco food court. By the time we had eaten our cheap pizza and hot dog Costco was closed. So we came home and I had intended to try and put Xander down for bed at 7. Jake and I started packing stuff, we are actually trying to get the house packed up early this move. So we were in 'Xander's room' (it's always been a sort of storage room with one corner for the changing table and crib) packing and he was wandering around playing with things.
I felt really bad cause he smushed his fingers in the door. He was playing with closing the door, but this time he was walking so when he caught them in the door he took his weight off the hurt hand, but that meant he put all his weight on the other hand that, of course, was on the door so he was just smushing the poor fingers more. :( Luckily, it was only for a slight moment cause I was keeping an eye on him and saw what was about to happen and was already on my way over to get him. No marks on his fingers and he was using the hand just fine within a few minutes. But still... :(
Anyway, I guess I had a good day and we got some packing done. It's 9:30 now and I promised myself I'd at least be in bed by 10 and I still need to wash bottles. Work tomorrow and hopefully a less whiney baby.
