Tadem mothering at its best..

The past two days the girls and I have gone out and about. That's right, I finally worked up the courage to take both girls out all by myself. It went really well. Yesterday I took the girls to the mall, to both walk around and get excercize and also to look for some new shoes for me. We walked around for about two hours, and although I didn't find a pair of shoes that I liked and was in my price range, I did get some excercise. I put Brookie in the stroller and Summer in the pouch and we started off. Summer spent half an hour looking around then decided she wanted to sleep the rest of the time, and I gave Brookie a rice cake and a fruit smoothie, so she was content in her stroller. I love my new pouch, she loves being in it and I can carry her around all day with no back pain. I got lots of compliments, on both the kiddos and the pouch.

Today I took the kiddos to Wally world to pick up a few things. Again, Brooke went in the carriage and Summer in the pouch. Spent about an hour there, and Summer once again slept the whole time. Brooke was a little cranky because she skipped her nap, but nothing major.

Yesterday we also gave Summer her first bottle of expressed breast milk. Not sure how I feel about that, but since I plan on working it had to be done.

Tomorrow I am hitting up a different mall to look for shoes again. Wish me luck!
