Today, I'd set out to the hospital to pick up some vitamins that had been prescribed for Baby V when she had her two-week appointment. That was last Friday. It wasn't until I got to the hospital access gate that I had left my ID card in the outfit that I had worn to that appointment last Friday. So I couldn't even get into the hospital parking lot, let alone pick up her vitamins. And darn it, I was supposed to schedule my OB follow up.
Oh well...I'll go back tomorrow. In any case, I went back to the old workplace to show Sina to my old shop (since they hadn't seen her yet) and to see if any of my lady friends had time to go out to lunch with me. Luckily, they were. And while we were visiting, I was able to catch a picture of Baby V with my friend, Laura!
Laura is the lone survivor left in our "maternity ward" trio. At one point, it was my other friend (and my assistant), Leah, Laura and myself in this group. The name was so aptly given to us by our bosses (both male), whom I must say, had to be intimidated by the thought of having three pregnant ladies in the workplace--and one that is predominantly male!
Leah, had her baby in May. I just had mine. And Laura hits her 8 month mark on Monday. Her baby is due on October! I can't believe we're almost there. And I'm so glad that we'll still be here to see her baby born!
Anyway, Baby V was such a great visitor today. She was wide awake and well-behaved!
Now we're back at home, and all is at peace because she is sleeping! I must say that every day is getting easier. We've gotten into somewhat of a routine at night and I'm better able to get her back to sleep after every feeding as opposed to staying up all hours of the morning trying to get her comfortable and back to sleep.
Tonight...she'll be taking her first bath!
In any case, I finally posted the recipe for the Simply Sensational Strawberry Shortcake dessert I mentioned the other day. So head on over to my cooking blog if you want to try it out!
Enjoy the rest of your hump day guys! I've got 16 days until Malu heads back from Fort Benning!
Update: ten minutes after posting this, I went back to look for my ID card. Turns out it was in my wallet the entire time, it was just hidden behind one of my pictures and I couldn't see it. Figures. But I still got to see my friends!

Hey pretty girl,
Love the pic of baby V and your friend so cute! No worries all of us mommies with babies forget things, believe me I have done my fair share of forgetting things....when you have so much to get just to go out the door it soooo happens LOL
Glad you were able to go to your old base and see your friends
Glad baby V is sleeping well for ya
xoxo
Summer :0)
Glad you had a good day (minus the ID card mishap)!!
Sounds like Baby V is a good little visitor. I bet they swooned over her!
I totally forgot about this! It was so fun to see the Sina so tiny, Jack still in my belly and the old buildings. Oh the days of the maternity ward. The only thing that could have made it better was if we all could have somehow taken our maternity leave together!
