I had to muster up all the courage inside to go out to dinner at Cafe Stella with my girlfriends last night. There are a few reasons why. 1) Rylie doesn’t take the bottle, so I have to nurse her. If I’m not there, she’ll probably starve. 2) Youkeun can’t put her to sleep. Therefore, I must put her to sleep before I leave. 3) If she wakes up, Youkeun is in BiG trouble.
I’m really big on being on time. That is before I had Rylie. With her, I realized that my schedule really depends on hers. I know I have to be somewhere at a certain time, but if she has to feed or take a nap, my plans are on hold. With this in mind, I had to orchestrate how I would be on time for dinner. The only way would be to keep her up from her last nap till the time I had to leave. I fed her at 6pm, started putting her to sleep at 6:20pm. Perfect! I can be in LA by 7:15pm at the latest (dinner was at 7pm). I was just about to leave the house when she suddenly woke up! why, why why? Youkeun and I gave each other a look and I knew I had to go back in and put her back to sleep. I was finally able to leave around 7:10pm and got to dinner almost an hour late
. It was so fun hanging out and dinner was delish. I checked on Youkeun a few times and everything was A-OK! Rylie went in for her 4 month check up today. Right when the doctor started checking her, she started to pout and cry. It was so cute! I wasn’t able to comfort her while she was getting her shots and her face turned cherry red in one second. Then 5 min later, she knocked out in the car and forgot all about her horrible experience
