5 Months - 5.21.13 & Mommy goes back to work




Payton and Mommy had some adjusting to do this week. I went back to work full time on Monday. It really worked out pretty well with only a few small bumps in the road. Payton is very lucky as are we to have the support and help of Grammy and Gramps along with her adoptive Grandma Rosa. Of course spending any part of your day with your Grammy and Gramps rocks, but then throw Rosa into the mix and it's an even busier and exciting week. Rosa is working on speaking Spanish to Payton and even reinforcing and continuing using sign language with her too!

We seem to have a morning routine down. We get up at 5:00 nurse and then Payton stays up for bit and then drifts back to sleep, making the transition to the car an easy one. When we get to Grammy's she is just waking up and ready to eat again. Mommy and Payton are lucky because everyday at lunch Mommy can come home for a visit or to nurse Payton. Payton has even started to take a few naps a day!!! All we need to get down now is feeding/nap times towards the end of the day.

If you go back to some earlier posts, you will see little Payton in her WashPod from her first weeks of life and here she is now! Such a huge difference!!!

This little peanut is growing faster than ever! We think she has to have again another pound or two! Payton was 5 months on May 21 (I know we are posting much closer to her 6 month birthday - but work has been hectic). Payton and Mommy went to the doctor for shots on 5/20 and Payton weighed in at 13 lb 3oz. Her next appointment is July 10 so we will she how she has grown then!

On Monday, June 3, Payton rolled over from her back to her belly. We tried to capture it but weren't so successful! See here...

In other milestones, we just love, love, love our toes!!!! Payton can be crying and once her feet land in her hands she is all smiles again (not that she cries all that much anyway :))
