So Monday was the beginning of a wonderous week of old fashioned fun! It started out with an email to Derek.
Me: The buttons on the microwave don't work, the light is on inside, but the buttons don't work.
Derek: Is it plugged in?
Me: How would the light come on if it wasn't plugged in? Now it's dead, no light, no clock.
Derek: Is it plugged in?
Me: YES! It's plugged in.
Derek: Guess we need a new microwave.
So since we figured that out, we went looking and found a really nice microwave. But then found another problem...the microwave we had was shorter(how is that possible? It's like 20 years old!!) so in order to LEGALLY install the new microwave we needed to replace the cabinet above it to make room. So Derek went out and got a new cabinet, stained it and then we realized...the rest of the cabinets probably just had a coat of poly on them because they are alot more yellow. So now we...and i actually mean I, get to strip/sand the old ones down and restain them to match the new cabinet.

Old Fashioned Bottle Week
So all week we have been boiling water to heat up Kylie's bottles. Bottle service was pretty darn slow at the Atkinson household this week. Any hoo, as of yesterday bottle service is back on track...looks pretty nice don't cha think?
P.S. I am super excited to say we now have a working fan and a LIGHT over the stove! I am amazed at the things that excite me now a days versus when i was younger.

I know what you mean about getting excited over things that are not what you would think you would get excited about when you were younger.
May I ask why you decided not to nurse her?
She never latched, she was a bit of a lazy sucker. So i pumped for two and a half months. Then i got a ringworm infection and was put on anti-fungal meds for a month so i had to stop giving her breastmilk and pretty much dried up.
Aw, that sucks!! I hope if you have another, you try again. It's wonderful!
I'll probably d the same with the next one. I liked the help feeding her that I got with Derek, plus i wasn't as tired since i had a helper.
