More Wine Please!!!......

Today...today...today...Where to begin....It started out good...Lila slept in...well actually slept until 4.15am, which is perfect for my schedule....I got her up and diaper changed....and as soon as she started eating she poops.....why oh why does it take a fresh diaper for some babies to take a poop....I changed her again and finished feeding her and laid her back to sleep....I even managed to get ready and get out of the house on time.....off to work I went.

Today was my long work day...10 hours of fun filled work....but boy do I feel like a cow on these days....3 trips to the lactation room in 10 hours....Moo Moo.....ugh....I really wish we could bring infants under a certain age to work...I mean really all they do is eat, poop and sleep....with a little bit of cooing and crying thrown in the mix....Seriously, I wish I would wear Lila to work...I don't think too many people would notice....do you? Work was good.....went by super slow....My friend Michelle stopped in....we have worked together at Medtronic for 5 years....it has been wonderful getting to know her.....She is heading back to New York on Sunday....I sure will miss her.....I wish her safe travels.....and can't wait to hear about her road trip.....

So tonight was Shawn's and my first date since Lila was born, we ate dinner at home with the girls, put them to bed at 8.00pm...and then headed out for the evening....We had such a good time...We finally went to Sip at the Wine Bar, its right in our neighborhood and its open until midnight......It was so nice to walk down and walk home....Really reminded me of the good times that Shawn and I had in Boston....We had a wonderful bottle of Oregon Pinot Noir....soooo goood....we split a cheese plate and a dessert.....Half Baked Chocolate Cake….....Everything about the place is wonderful....Food, Wine, Decor, Staff.....even the bathrooms with the shared hand washing.....Yup thats right you wash your hands with the men......not to mention the TV screens in the mirror at the hand washing station.....the footage is of the bar.....you can totally people watch....pretty freaking cool.....Anyway we had a great time....and even better conversation........Lots of talk about job interviews and the possibility of us moving out of state....man it was just nice to be out with Shawn and no kids.....a big thanks to Grandma Paula....we really appreciated all her help baby sitting today.....Its late.....I am planning on gettnig up and working out in the am, time to get by rear in gear!!!!....so later y'alls.....

Hi! I'm so glad you & Shawn had a great time,that sounds like such a cool place! :)
I love the shared bathroom sinks and the people watching screens, I'd be in the restroom the whole time just watching everyone out in the restaurant! ha ha

Oh and I also wanted to say that you should totally be able to bring Lila to work---she would be so much less fussy than most of the adults there. ha ha

Love,
