Walking and Swaddling

I've been taking Luci out for long walks lately a few times a week since we got back here after Christmas. We were walking to Jason's work through the desert, Luci in the Moby Wrap and Moo on leash. Visit for a couple minutes, then we walked back home. Other times I just walked around the neighborhood, sometimes with Moo and sometimes without.

Today I put her in the stroller and we took the LONG way to Jason's work. Finally got there and hung out for a while taking a break. We left for home and had to take the extra long way home since I didn't want to push the stroller on the bumpy dirt road again. About half way there uphill, Luci started crying. I got to a bus stop and took her out and sat with her for a while, but she wanted her afternoon nap. I guess she is getting used to her afternoon nap at home, so I carried her and pushed the stroller the rest of the way home. That was pretty exhausting. We just got home a little while ago. We were outside for a good hour and a half. WOW.

Swaddling

I swaddled her in my favorite swaddling blanket and she is sleeping in her crib now. I only swaddle her for naps. At night she still goes to sleep on her own in her crib. It's quite nice. I love these aden + anais® 100% cotton muslin swaddling wraps, they are so soft and thin, but strong and perfect for swaddling, wrapping, using as a nursing cover and they are extra large so they work for tall babies and infants as well. I want to buy more of their stuff later on.

I think my weight is going down slightly from walking so much. I'm not trying to lose weight or eating to lose weight, but I still am aware of how much I weigh. I'm still about 10 pounds over my pre-pregnancy weight. Mostly in my belly and around there.

Weight: 144lbs
