Is it just me or are the mosquitoes BAD right now? I took Harper for a walk on Saturday morning and there was a SWARM following us the whole time! I didn't take my eyes off of Harper to make sure she didn't get bit, but I ended up with six bites! (Add to that the one I got at Target on Friday and the one I got in the parking lot at the doctor today.) And we were supposed to go to the zoo with a friend and her boys on Wednesday, but we called it off because of the darn mosquitoes. So now we are trapped inside until this infestation goes away...
...although lately I not only feel trapped inside, I feel trapped to the couch. I think Harper is going through yet another growth spurt. She seems to nurse all. the. time. And I can only get her down for a nap if she falls asleep while eating or if she falls asleep while riding in the car. Can anyone else relate? Am I doing something wrong? She's definitely getting enough to eat. Her diapers prove that. Any suggestions on how to get her to nap more consistently? I feel like there are some days that she doesn't get a single good nap in. And no nap = fussy baby + extra tired mom.
Anyway, here's a picture of Harper before our {awful} walk on Saturday. Jason got her all ready while I got dressed.
I guess I'll also mention that Jason went for a run while I walked with Harper and then we switched and I ran home. I ran one mile and my legs felt like jello the rest of the day. And my legs were sore on Sunday. Seriously. One mile. And it was slow. Sigh.
