So after reading my last post, I felt like I should elaborate a little on the whole, us training Jenna to adapt to our lifestyle instead of us adapting to hers. Tucker and I are ALWAYS on the go, we like to pick up and go if something fun comes our way. As I said in the earlier post, we didn’t want to be prisoners in our own home and as I do believe in a routine/schedule, I didn’t believe that an hour by hour schedule was going to work for us like it does for so many others! Jenna came to our couple’s shower a few days after she was brought home from the hospital. She also went to restaurants and doctor’s appointments and even Target in the first few weeks she was alive! *NOTE: For some reason, I didn’t take her to Wal-Mart until she was at least two months old maybe even older.
I know I took her to Target, but for some reason Wal-Mart seems a little dirtier to me!!
With this being said, the on the go baby works great with our family. Jenna actually loves going to restaurants, bars, clubs, you name it! haha….. JUST KIDDING!!! No really, she does love being out and about, much better than being at home all day. It seems like everywhere we went early on people were asking us or rather telling us that Jenna must be our second baby. The answer is obviously NO, as I am VERY protective over her, she is our first. It just works for us to have her on our schedule!
One thing Jenna DOESN’T like is the car seat! She hates being in the back seat all by herself. She is a social baby (I have no clue where she gets that from) and loves to be entertained! I think once we are able to let her ride facing forward she will like it better, but for now we have a cranky baby in the car unless she is WORN SLAP OUT!
