Another Bailout

Daddy has started his 90 hr week crunch schedule at work, meaning he comes home late every work day. And for three days a week he comes home 12 am or later (hence the drop in posts). So Mom has no breaks whatsoever! Luckily Grandma was able to come by and help out Christine Monday night. Hannah and Grandma had some nice bonding time, so hopefully this will become a weekly thing until Dad's crunch ends in late Nov. Thanks Grandma for bailing us out!

Also, we've started giving Hannah the bottle for one meal every two days. Yep, mom has started pumping. Hannah loves the breast a little too much, and she often just hangs out there, using mom as a pacifier. And she just falls asleep there too, almost every time. This has totally been tying mom down! Pretty soon Mom's legs will start to wither away from atrophy, like the earthlings from Wall-E. As a result, we introduced bottle feeding -- and Hannah did not miss a beat! So hopefully when mom goes back to work in Dec. it'll be a smooth transition for everyone.

Another cool thing that happened this week: Hannah's Social Security Card came in the mail! She's now able to work -- sweeeet! With our retirement accounts going down the tubes, we can sure use the extra income. Our family will be recovering from the recession in no time!
