Heat Wave, part 2

The good news is that the AC is working again. The bad news is that I spent all day in the house with no AC until after 5pm today. It wasn't the most fun Evie and I have ever had, but it could have been far worse! The AC guy came out and charged up the unit again, but found bigger problems, unfortunately. It looks like we will be saving up some money and investing in a new AC unit sooner as opposed to later. It amazes me the dumb things people do to save money. Case in point: the previous owner of the house replaced the old heat pump with a new one that does not match the compressor that is contained in the crawl space. It doesn't make sense and yet he did it. So, in the long run the whole situation could have been far worse I suppose. Two yucky days of being very warm in the house...

In Evelyn news she seems to have a crazy appetite! Today was a weird day and I can't decide if it's a growth spurt or the heat. Evie ate TONS today and took practically no real naps after about 12:30pm. That has not happened in her two weeks of life. She was sucking down 3 to 3.5 ounces of milk every two hours like clock work and then by this evening she was eating that about once an hour. Plus she was just really fidgety and demanding and would not fall asleep. I got her to nap from about 3:45 to 5:00 and then she was awake until nearly 8:45! I finally was tapped out as far as milk I had pumped and resorted to trying a little bit of formula. She sucked in a good half ounce of that and conked out on me and has been sleeping ever since! So, my new plan for tonight is to feed her the rest of the formula that I have sitting in the fridge (about 3.5 ounces) around 11pm and see how much sleep I can grab before she wakes up ready to nurse again. I love that Evie doesn't seem to be picky about breast milk vs. formula AND she really seems to not care about temperature of something. Obviously I don't make it too hot, but at best she just wants her food to be luke warmish. Let's hope she keeps being so easy going about food!

Here are two pictures from today...
