Shopping

Today I went shopping and bought something for the first time since I've had the baby. I have gotten down to my target weight, so I figured it was okay to buy clothes again. I did not buy much, just a couple tops and a dress for my friend's wedding in a couple weeks. I also bought Lydia a dress for the wedding, though I'll be returning it and buying another since Trung did not seem to like it very much. :P

I actually managed to shop for quite awhile. I first met up my friend Laurie at the food court and had a mini birthday lunch with her. Then I went to White House Black Market, one of my favorite stores, and tried on a bunch of clothes. Lydia did good for a long time, falling in and out of sleep, but later got hungry. I asked the salesperson if I could put the clothes on hold, feed the baby in my car, and come back and try on the rest of the clothes. She said that I could nurse in the fitting room, and that tons of other people have done it before. Well, so, I did. It wasn't too bad, just a but nippy (literally) at times. :) By the time I bought my and Lydia's clothes, it was traffic hour, which is like all day on Friday, so the drive back home took longer than expected.

My fear is for Lydia is start bawling as I'm in the middle of traffic and I can't do anything about it. Well, today, she started to cry, but I managed to find the pacifier (while driving, but there was traffic, so it was VERY slow), and stick it back in her month. Then I turned the music to the classical station, which I had on for the entire third trimester of my pregnancy, and it soothed her...thank goodness. This was my first time trying that, so maybe it will work next time as well.
